Nestled on the shores of Ghost Lake, the Refined Shoreline Cottage is a carefully balanced blend of clean lines, natural textures, and elevated details. Designed to feel both welcoming and sophisticated, this lakefront retreat embraces its surroundings with warm wood tones, stacked stone accents, and expansive windows that draw the outdoors in. Every element has been selected with care and intention, creating a space that feels as serene as it is stylish - perfect for quiet mornings or fun-filled evenings filled with family and friends.

On the main floor, the mudroom, laundry room and powder room are conveniently located just off the rear entry, creating the perfect drop zone for all the lake life activities. The main floor then opens to a spacious living and dining area made even more impressive by the two-story windows, which showcase sweeping views of Ghost Lake and the magnificent Rocky Mountains. A striking floor-to-ceiling stone clad natural gas fireplace also adorns the main living area, perfect for cozying up after an activity-filled day at the lake. The front door opens to reveal an extension of the living area: a large deck covered by an impressive Douglas fir framed A-frame roof, creating an outdoor living space that can be enjoyed year-round.

Finally, the main floor features the heart of the home: the kitchen. Clean lines, soft grey cabinetry with slim shaker door and drawer fronts, sleek stainless-steel appliances and subtle black and brushed nickel accents all help to create a space that is cozy and approachable, while maintaining a quiet elegance. But this kitchen doesn’t just look good - it is fully equipped with a walk-in pantry and abundance of counter and storage space, perfect for the large family gatherings that the homeowners love to host.

Moving upstairs, the primary suite overlooks the main floor below, the shiplap ceilings above, and the incredible view out the front windows. Two custom barn doors flank the open to below to provide privacy when needed. The primary suite also features a secluded balcony overlooking the greenspace behind the home, offering a quiet sanctuary to enjoy with a morning cup of coffee. A spacious walk-in closet and luxurious ensuite complete the primary suite and feature customized storage solutions, an extensive vanity, backlit mirrors, and a sumptuous steam shower.

Downstairs, the basement boasts of an additional 903 square feet, creating the space for three additional bedrooms. The basement bathroom features a customized vanity, quartz countertops, a tile shower and built-in shelving for towels and linens. The expansive common room is the cherry on top, providing ample space for gathering with loved ones or cozying up for a movie night.
