This lot is one of a kind, featuring plenty of off street parking, numerous outdoor sitting areas, a beautiful front patio space, massive wrap around deck AND private 2nd level primary bedroom deck with stunning views of Elkwater lake. The main level welcomes you with a warm and inviting kitchen spanning through to the partially separate dining area. The kitchen features a full appliance package, pantry, and plenty of cabinet/counter top space. At the rear of the property is a spacious living room with a bonus den connected to it— perfect for cozy evenings after cross-country skiing or hiking — while large windows throughout the home frame picturesque views and flood the space with natural light. A well appointed bedroom on the main floor with built-in bunk beds easily accommodate multiple guests - ideal for families or hosting weekend guests. A spacious wraparound deck offers the perfect outdoor living area for summer barbecues, morning coffee, or late-night stargazing, all surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds designed for privacy and enjoyment. The deck has been recently redone, and glass railing installed. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a true retreat - with elevated views of Elkwater Lake this portion of the home will leave you never wanting to return to City life! Set just a short stroll from the beach, marina, cafes, and Elkwater's year-round recreation — yet quietly removed from the bustle — this cabin strikes a rare balance of proximity and privacy. With its turnkey, fully furnished offering, exceptional updates, and irreplaceable location, this property stands out as a premier choice for those seeking comfort, seclusion, and style in Alberta's most treasured parkland.
