Description

Perched high above the shimmering waters of Lake Pend Oreille in the charming lakeside town of Hope, this exceptional 3,567 sq ft custom residence captures the essence of refined North Idaho living. Thoughtfully remodeled with a distinctive nautical-rustic aesthetic, the home blends modern elegance with warm mountain character while framing sweeping panoramic views of Warren Island, the Monarch Mountains, Ellisport Bay, and Denton Slough. Expansive walls of glass invite the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light and showcasing the ever-changing beauty of lake and mountain vistas. The main living space is anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace and warm bamboo flooring, creating an inviting atmosphere that is both sophisticated and relaxed. At the heart of the home, the fully remodeled chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious island designed for gathering and entertaining. The open floor plan flows seamlessly to an expansive wraparound balcony with remote-controlled awnings--an extraordinary setting for sunset dining, summer entertaining, and front-row views of Independence Day fireworks over the lake. Designed with versatility in mind, the home offers four spacious bedrooms and three beautifully appointed baths, including two private primary suites. A lower-level suite with private entrance, kitchenette, and full bath provides the perfect retreat for guests, extended family, or potential income opportunity. Accessible for people with disabilities, featuring wide doors, hallways, and an acorn chairlift. Set on a beautifully landscaped .36-acre parcel, the grounds feel like a private sanctuary. A cascading waterfall, seasonal pond, heirloom fruit trees, and winding garden pathways create a peaceful environment for relaxation, while a private hot tub beneath the stars invites quiet evenings surrounded by nature. Additional amenities include generous storage, city water and sewer, and ample parking for boats, RVs, and guests. Just minutes away, the vibrant waterfront at Hope Marina offers boating, dining, and access to the lake's legendary recreation.
