Living Between Kelowna and Lake Country: A Serene Retreat

Lakestone is strategically positioned between Kelowna and Lake Country, hugging the shores of Okanagan Lake. Merely 12 minutes from Kelowna International Airport, 15 minutes from the University of British Columbia Okanagan, and a quick 25-minute drive to downtown Kelowna, Lakestone provides a harmonious blend of accessibility and seclusion. Offering some of the most picturesque and unobstructed views of Okanagan Lake and Mountains, Lakestone spans 500 acres of land with almost 300 meters of elevation change above the lakeshore.

Micro-Neighbourhoods and Preferred Builders

Lakestone is segmented into three main regions acting as micro-neighborhoods: Waterside, Benchlands, and Highlands. Each enclave offers a unique charm and character, contributing to the diversity of Lakestone living.

Boasting a selection of preferred builders like Destination Custom Homes, Gibson Contracting, Noba Vision Lakeside Homes, and Richmond Custom Homes, Lakestone ensures that your dream home is in capable hands. While there's no obligation to choose one of these builders, their recommendation signifies a stamp of quality and expertise.

Owning in Lakestone: A Tax Advantage

As part of the district municipality of Lake Country, Lakestone homeowners enjoy a distinct advantage—freedom from the speculation tax. This tax, introduced to incentivize the rental of vacant homes, is a non-issue for those who call Lakestone home.
