Featured Property | 550 Jaffray-Baynes Lake Road

In the heart of the south country and the newly termed “Lake District” is the community of Baynes Lake. Just off the town of Jaffray and central to the popular lakes in the area, Baynes Lake has increasingly become a popular location for a permanent residence or vacation spot. While Baynes Lake is just 30 minutes from both Fernie and Cranbrook, it offers a milder climate. Hot summers with a longer growing season, and shorter winters with less snow, it is no wonder the area is attracting attention.

550 Jaffray Baynes Lake Road offers a custom built home. Just 13 years old and recently freshened up, the home and yard are spacious and complimented by fine features. 550 Jaffray-Baynes Lake Road is perfect for the full time family or a couple of recreational families.

The main floor is a roomy 1371 square feet, with 9 foot ceilings supporting an old fashion feel to the home. Earthy tones within the interior, including hardwood floors and slate, create a warm feel along with adjustable lighting to suite your mood. The largest room on the floor is a country style kitchen, open to a nook and the entertainment centre. Large windows provide natural lighting to the space, which also has access to the spacious back porch with a hot tub and BBQ.
Just off the kitchen is the dining room, formalized with slate flooring and crown moldings. There is also a bedroom, TV room and 3-piece bathroom located on the main floor.

Attached to the home is a double garage with plenty of room. There are two work areas with under counter storage and the garage is complete with a deep sink and goose neck faucet for cleaning up after your chores.
The exterior of the home and the detached garage are clad in cedar siding. The roof is high quality 30 year asphalt shingle with large eaves overhang the entire home. Front and back verandahs add protection from the weather and allow you to sit out and enjoy the nature around you.

The upstairs is 1218 square feet, and includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a sitting room. The lower level at 1371 square feet is made up of a games room, family room, bedroom, bathroom and a sizeable laundry room.

Undoubtedly one of the best features of this property is the yard. At 4.12 acres, this space is more like a park and allows access to the serenity of the outdoors in the south country. The topography of the land is mostly level around the home, with the outer edges of the lawn slowly gives way to the natural grasses and wildflowers that grow through the trees in the back of the property.

The property is serviced with BC Hydro, Telus for phones, high speed internet, private drilled well, private septic system with drain field, and propane for heating and cooking. The main road is maintained by Ministry of Highways, a school bus comes to pick up children, and there is a responding fire department and first responder team in place.

This property is private and serene, just close enough to comfort. Recreate just outside your doorstep or drive the quick stretch of road to the nearest mountain biking, golfing, skiing or fishing destination at 550 Jaffray-Baynes Lake Road.
