Property Description

Quietly approached by a private forested driveway over a flowing creek, an Alan Liddle–redesigned home rests on 12 ACRES of tranquility. A peaceful & inspiring setting could easily spark the imagination of an artist or writer. Towering rhododendrons soften the architecture, while sounds of nature accompany you under the covered walkway to the entrance. The natural light draws you to a generous library with built-ins & fireplace creating an intimate retreat for reading & reflection. The adjoining living room is anchored by a fireplace & a dramatic wall of floor-to-ceiling windows creating a striking backdrop for a grand piano. French doors open to a patio overlooking Chambers Creek, expansive lawn—ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The dining room flows seamlessly enjoying creek views beneath a crystal-adorned chandelier. The kitchen offers an eating bar & sunny nook with views of the rear garden & patio, blending everyday comfort and effortless living. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own featuring a sitting area with a gas fp & access to a private balcony overlooking the landscape. 2 additional bedrooms enjoy peaceful views of nature & creek. Meandering paths thru emerald lawns, a private pond visited by ducks & a salmon-spawning stream with gentle rapids & waterfalls. The creek winds along the property, enhancing seclusion & connection as a canopy transforms into brilliant colors. An irreplaceable estate where architecture, nature & lifestyle converge.
