Nestled in a quiet forest setting on two lots with a year-round creek, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath rancher offers the best of privacy, nature, and small-town living. Inside, an open-concept kitchen and dining area connect to a formal living room—both sharing a cozy double-sided propane fireplace. The large white kitchen is timeless and functional, with a separate laundry room tucked to the side. Oversized windows bring in natural light and frame peaceful views of easy-care perennials and mature trees. Step outside to enjoy extensive gardens, a 10x20' fenced vegetable garden with concrete-set posts, an 11x20' white shelter, and a 10'H x 8'W x 6'L Planta greenhouse with power, double doors, and an auto-opening roof vent. The natural forest includes Pacific silver fir, Western hemlock, red cedar, Grand fir, Douglas fir, and bigleaf maples—some soaring over 100’. Three white-blooming 'Stella' cherry trees and a gold-leaf Chamaecyparis add seasonal interest. Additional plantings include Japanese maple, vine maple, and mountain ash. The gardens also feature rhododendrons, azaleas, fothergilla, evergreen huckleberry, spiraea, peonies, lilies, iris, ornamental alliums, and bee balm. A natural ravine, left untouched, is home to sword ferns, vanilla leaf, huckleberry, and trillium, with stairs and switchbacks leading to the creek below. The second lot offers potential for an additional dwelling—ideal for extended family or future development. Just a short walk to swimming, boating, and all the shops and amenities of the beautiful, friendly Town of Lake Cowichan. (id:59048)
