Description

100 Feet of Lakefront. 20-Foot Ceilings. A Wall of Glass to the Water. Welcome to a rare stretch of Lake Echo, where neighbours stay for decades and lakefront homes are loved across generations. This 5-bedroom, 2-bath 2 storey home is perched above the waterline on a gently sloping lot with 100 feet of lake frontage and a front-row seat to the stillness of Lake Martin. Inside, the home opens dramatically into a great room with 20-foot cathedral ceilings and a full wall of windows overlooking the lake. This main level is bright, inviting, and built for gathering - whether you're hosting a party, stretching out for a quiet weekend, or enjoying a moment by the fireplace with the lake in full view. The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly across the back-split layout, all oriented toward the water. Five bedrooms give space for the whole crew, and the layout offers flexibility for guests, work-from-home setups, or multi-generational living. Step outside and breathe it in. Your deck is perfectly positioned for the show — sunsets that hit the water just right, every evening. This lake is part of a vast, forest-fed system of still waters, ponds, rivers, and deep lakes, constantly refreshed by nature and protected by the surrounding reserve. And when it comes to drinking water, you’ll appreciate the deep well that draws from a remarkable aquifer — clean, clear, and reliable. Outside, you'll find the space and privacy you’ve been craving - a wide lot, room to garden or play, and easy access to the lake for paddling, swimming, or soaking up the peace. The community is tight-knit and well-loved, with quick access to the Lake Echo Community Play Park, Orenda Canoe Club, and the Lake Echo Community Recreation Centre. If you’ve been waiting for the kind of lakefront property that rarely comes up - this is it. Settle in. Spread out. Live where the view never gets old.
