Beautifully finished Cabin on the shores of Horne Lake!

There's just something about a cabin on the lake that captures the imagination of the young and causes the young-at-heart to revert back to their childhood... the beautiful natural setting, the endless sunshine, the lazy afternoons of boating or swimming, and the opportunity to create family memories that will last a lifetime. Lake life is the good life!

Just a short drive from Qualicum Beach is a picturesque valley embraced by 3,200 acres of rugged, pristine forestland, where a quiet family- friendly community has grown along the shoreline of Horne Lake. Here you’ll find this super cute 1153 sqft 3 Bed/2 Bath chalet-style Cabin on a sunny south-facing .38-acre waterfront lot, offering day-to-day main-level living along with two additional upper Bedrooms. The home showcases warm organic accents of cedar and stone inside and out, a huge south-facing deck, and spectacular interior and exterior views that change with the seasons.

An unfinished overheight crawl space provides extra storage or workshop space, while a private floating dock, outdoor bath with shower, and solar power and water systems make off-the-grid lakefront adventures effortless. Ideal for both summer and winter living or use it as a fabulous vacation getaway far from the hustle and bustle!

An entry drive leaves the main road and welcomes you to the good-sized parking area of this beautiful lakefront home in a picture-perfect setting, with Horne Lake stretching out in front and Mount Mark rising majestically above the pristine forest backdrop behind. The heart of the home is a spacious and bright Kitchen, Living, and Dining Room featuring an overheight cathedral ceiling of cedar with exposed beams, rich hardwood flooring, a river rock hearth hosting a gas stove, and a stunning wall of glass framing unforgettable lake views.

Dual doors open onto a huge 536 sqft south-facing deck that is perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining. Relax and enjoy the full-on southern exposure, beautiful views of the crystal lake embraced by hectares of spiritual forestland, the rich aroma of the evergreens and red cedars, and the soul-rejuvenating peace and quiet, only occasionally broken by the distant cry of waterfowl or a passing boater!

The well-designed 3-piece Kitchen features shaker- style cabinetry with crown molding, granite countertops, a tiered island offering extra prep, and a 4-burner propane stove. Also on the main level is a bright main-level Primary Bedroom with windows on two walls for natural light, plus a 3- piece Bath with nice tile work, a shower, and slate flooring.

Stairs lead to an upper-level loft area that could serve as home office space, overlooking the living area below and enjoying lovely views. Also on this level is a spacious Second Bedroom with a double closet, along with a cozy Third Bedroom—perfect for accommodating friends and family. Accessible from the exterior is a huge 757 sqft overheight crawl space with a washer and dryer, offering great potential as a workshop and providing abundant storage space.

Just steps from the home is a convenient 2-piece outdoor washroom/change room with a shower, along with a path leading to the south-facing beach where you'll find a spectacular panorama of views that stretch across the lake to Turtle Rock and span from Regional Park and Horne Lake Caves Provincial Park on one side to Rocky Point and Fletcher’s Island on the other, with the snow- capped peak of Mount Wesley rising in the distance.

Sip on your favorite cool beverage while the youngsters dive off the floating dock, take the boat out for some water skiing, trout fishing, or pull the kids around on an inner tube, then relax at day’s end and watch the pastel colors of dusk slowly mellow into an endlessly starry night sky... these are the kind of wonderful family memories that will last a lifetime!

Extra features include a satellite dish/receiver and convenient storage space beneath the deck for kayaks, rafts, and other water toys. Water is supplied by a stream on Mount Mark and piped to the Cabin. An electric pump in the crawl ensures consistent water pressure throughout the dwelling, while a propane hot water tank in the outdoor shed supplies water via underground pipes.

The 24-volt electric system consists of six solar collectors on the roof, sending power to 12 two- volt batteries in the crawl space. There is a gauge showing your available power in percentages, and the seller reports never having had a shortage of electricity. There is also a back up generator, however this has never been needed during the summer months.

Horne Lake offers a remote, “unplugged” feel, yet remains easily accessible for year-round recreation. Summer brings caving at Horne Lake Caves, rock climbing on nearby limestone cliffs, and endless hiking or ATV exploration through forested trail systems, while winter offers snowshoeing, ice fishing, cross- country skiing, and downhill skiing at Mount Washington just an hour away.

Located only 20 minutes from Qualicum Beach and within 45 minutes of both Parksville and Nanaimo, this special destination is also easy to reach from further afield—fly into Comox or Nanaimo Airport, take the Departure Bay Ferry, and within 90 minutes you...

Lake life is the good life, and the good life begins here! Don’t miss this amazing opportunity!
