MEET DESMOND

Desmond Arens grew up in Kamloops, spent years working on a ranch at Pritchard, and after getting married, he moved his family to the Shuswap as soon as he could.  Here he and his wife raised their three children while he worked as General Manager for his family’s business.   Sensing that the time was right for a change, Desmond completed his licensing with BCREA and now uses his extensive knowledge of the Thompson – Shuswap – Okanagan region to assist both buyers and sellers in achieving their Real Estate goals.

    If you've been looking for rural living that's not too far off the beaten path, then check out this little gem of a property! It's got a home and a shop on 1.57 acres, ready, waiting, and with quick possession possible. The home is a 1992 single-wide manufactured home with an addition which provides a single car garage along with extra rooms. The main entrance opens to a convenient mud room with access to a 10' x 20' space with separate entrance that would be suitable for hobbies, a workshop, or even a home-based business. Up the steps, find the utility room, and the entrance to the main part of the home. The spacious eat-in Kitchen-Dining room opens to the Living Room which has a gas fireplace. Both rooms have large windows making them bright, and allowing enjoyment of views over the property, plus mountain, and ""peek-a-boo"" lake views. Primary Bedroom with 4 pc Ensuite and Walk-in closet is located at one end of the home, with the 2nd Bedroom (which boasts a bay window) and the main 4 pc Bathroom at the opposite end. Laundry is conveniently located just off the Kitchen hallway. Outside, in the fenced back yard, you'll find a 36' x 24' Driving Shed with separate, lockable workshop and storage areas that both have power and lights. There's plenty of room for RV parking on the lower laneway. Located a minute off the TCH for easy access (but on a no-thru road for privacy), just West of Sorrento, approximately half way between Calgary and Vancouver. (id:2493) More details

The original little home was built in 1920 shortly after Canoe was established enough to get its own post-office in 1909! The 1920-built home was raised up and put on a foundation in the 1960's, creating a 2nd storey! Through the years,it has had other upgrades, including the addition of a single car garage, a new 40 year roof in 2018, and a new deck in 2022. Since 2023 the kitchen has received a facelift, the 2nd bathroom was added, new carpet was installed in the family room, and it has had fresh paint throughout. The spacious eat-in Kitchen is open to the Living Room creating a bright, open gathering place. The beautifully designed, raised deck extends the living space outdoors. It has stairs down to a fully fenced yard, which has plenty of open space, complemented by a fire-pit, an 8 x 12' storage shed, mature shade trees, & garden box. There's also a 14' wide gate to the rear alley for easy access.
