It’s a place to settle into the stillness, and let the lake define the backdrop of everyday life.

Along the water’s edge in Casa Loma, this beautifully designed waterfront residence brings daily life into close conversation with Okanagan Lake. Spanning three levels, it balances comfort and functionality with a layout that lets the setting take center stage.

With generous indoor space distributed across its levels, the home is arranged for both togetherness and privacy, offering room to live, host, and unwind without feeling over-orchestrated.

A barn and full fencing support a rural lifestyle, with room for horses or other livestock and the daily rhythm that comes with caring for land and animals.
