1294 Green Road — Balfour, British Columbia

Close your eyes and you can almost see it: coolers and beach toys being unloaded from the car, kids that can't wait to get their swimsuits on, beach towels drying on the deck railing - the vision of a Kootenay summer. Nestled on the pristine shores of Queens Bay, this true older 2-bedroom waterfront cabin on Green Road is a portal back to the effortless days of family tradition. Situated on 0.24 acres, the property is framed by a canopy of mature trees that offer deep shade for lazy afternoons, while the lakeside remains open to those famous, wide-open water views. Inside, the home radiates a soulful warmth centred around a classic wood fireplace and wood panelled walls. Ask a local and they will tell you that Queens Bay's waters are known to be the warmest on the lake. The layout thoughtfully includes a bonus room with separate outside access—the ideal spot for kids who want to feel like they’re ""sleeping outside"" or for guests to come and go as they please. From the expansive, sun-drenched deck to your private slice of shoreline, every inch of this retreat is designed for the simple joys: mornings on the beach, golf at the nearby Balfour course, and evenings defined by the scent of woodsmoke from a campfire on the shore. Here, the modern world fades away, replaced by the gentle lap of the waves and a lifestyle where time is measured only by the height of the sun and memories are made. (id:63357)
