This bright and inviting 2005 custom cedar home was thoughtfully built to preserve nearly 4 acres of pristine natural woodland—a true hidden gem in the Eastern Highlands, surrounded by majestic arbutus and Douglas fir, yet only minutes from amenities. To protect the native flora and fauna, the owners commissioned a dedicated Landscape Restoration Plan, ensuring the land remains in harmony with its natural setting. Perched on a gentle rise and designed with an expansive wrap-around, south-facing deck, and vibrant sunsets. Inside, floor-to-ceiling windows flood the principal rooms with light while showcasing the vistas beyond. The open-concept layout features gleaming maple hardwood, soaring vaulted ceilings with striking exposed beams, and a stunning river-rock fireplace with an energy-efficient wood-burning insert. A rare blend of modern comfort and natural beauty, this home offers peace, privacy, and the essence of a true private retreat.
