About this home

Discover a truly unique live-work-recreation opportunity offering a rare combination of country living, workspace potential, and outdoor lifestyle. Set on a beautiful forested 16 Acre property surrounded by a mix of hardwood and softwood bush, this one-of-a-kind offering features a massive 50x80 Kodiac steel building with integrated barndominium-style living quarters, impressive 50x50 shop space, and endless possibilities. The living area offers a 50x30 1,500 sqft plus approximately 800 sqft loft space with an open concept layout designed for practical country living. The kitchen and main bathroom will be completed prior to closing, while the ensuite bathroom will remain unfinished, allowing the next owner the opportunity to customize the space to their needs. Built with future comfort in mind, both the living quarters and shop are roughed in for in-floor heating, complemented by an installed mini split heat pump for efficient heating and cooling. The expansive shop area provides incredible versatility for contractors, hobbyists, entrepreneurs, equipment storage, recreational toys, or a home-based business, with a 400 amp electrical service, drilled well, HRV system, and brand new appliances including fridge, stove, dishwasher, washer and dryer. Outside, enjoy a scenic pond reaching approximately 14 feet deep in areas, primed to be stocked with fish, creating a beautiful backdrop for this private rural retreat. Located less than 1 km from a public boat launch into Contau Lake and surrounded by exceptional recreational opportunities including hunting, trail riding, snowmobiling, boating and fishing, this is a rare opportunity to own a property that truly stands apart offering the flexibility to live, work, play, and create your own vision in a peaceful country setting.
