OPEN HOUSE: SAT & SUN 2-4 PM. 695 Lakeview Rd sits right on Lake Windermere, one of the warmest, most swimmable lakes in the Columbia Valley, with a boathouse and a gently graded walk to the water. The kind of access most ''waterfront'' listings quietly wish they had. The 5-bedroom rancher with a walk-out basement is built for full houses and long weekends. The sunroom opens to the lake through floor-to-ceiling windows, with hardwood underfoot and three lake-facing decks pointed at the mountains across the water. Inside: a well-equipped kitchen, a fireplace-anchored living room, a durable metal roof, and flooring that doesn't care about wet feet or ski boots. Summers are for the boathouse and a swim off your own shoreline. Winters are twenty minutes from Panorama. Downtown Invermere is five. Flat, easy parking and walk-out access make this as livable full-time as it is on a Friday-to-Sunday basis. They stopped making shoreline a while ago. This is a good piece of it. Come see for yourself. (id:60457)
