The space
Welcome to The Woods!
The upper floor of the home is a large open concept master suite that contains the master bedroom, master bathroom, laundry facilities, and a third bedroom.
The large master bedroom contains a king bed and two bay windows with comfortable seats where you can gaze along the river valley and surrounding woods. Linens have been carefully selected.
The master bathroom is remarkable. Double sinks, a large shower, and a freestanding soaker tab that overlooks the mountain valley. Picture yourself in a luxurious bubble bath indulging in a glass of wine while looking at the mountains and river beyond. Ahhh.
The second bedroom is on the main floor adjacent to the second bathroom. It contains a queen bed. Large windows allow plentiful light and stunning views of the property.
The third bedroom is on the upper floor adjacent to the master bedroom. It has a standard size twin bed. It is a cosy space that was originally built as a media room. As a result, it does not have windows however the walls and floor contain noise insulating material. It is an excellent option for anyone who is noise sensitive while sleeping. It is in the hallway in close proximity to the master bedroom - which can be advantageous for little ones.
The fourth sleeping space is in the upstairs hallway in a cozy alcove. It is comprised of a luxurious velvet trundle bed that has a standard twin mattress on top and a second standard twin mattress that can be pulled out from underneath. It is an excellent option for both adults and children.
The main floor also contains a gourmet chef's kitchen. Stainless steel appliances, gas range, marble countertops, 3 sinks and a sumptuous island with a breakfast bar set the stage for memorable meals at home. The kitchen also contains a desk space. It is an excellent area to catch up on some emails or for the children to complete the craft while the adults are cooking dinner.
Adjacent to the kitchen is the living room. Two-story vaulted ceilings, comfortable furniture, a gas fireplace and entertainment system nestle you in mountain charm. We are grateful to have high speed internet powered by satellite and we make every effort to ensure you have an uninterrupted WiFi connection. The television is serviced by AppleTV which provides access to Netflix, Disney+ and Prime.
Steps down from the kitchen is the solarium. The walls are covered in floor to ceiling windows and there are skylights galore. A dining room suite is in place and ready for your enjoyment.
If that wasn't enough, the outdoor spaces are devine! An exquisitely large deck contains patio furniture and a shade umbrella, ready for relaxing afternoons watching the birds and eagles soaring overhead. The home is surrounded by perennial and annual gardens showcasing the bounty of the Kootenay growing season. Feel free to harvest treasures from the vegetable garden, herb garden, and orchard. In the winter, the property is a wonderland full of snow capped trees and tobogganing hills.
While visiting we recommend meandering along the property’s many pathways. Perhaps you’ll catch a glimpse of roaming elk, deer and even turkeys. A stunning walk through the forest takes you to a secluded beach on the shores of the Kootenay River. It's simply breathtaking.
