The living room, with its Pacific Energy wood stove set in rockwork

The house

The farmhouse

Warm wood, a crackling stove and wide porches facing the fields.

A wood ceiling in the living room, cottage fir floors and a glass-door Pacific Energy wood stove set in rockwork make the farmhouse warm from the moment you step in. Wide covered porches open onto the fields and the long Cariboo evenings.

Extensively renovated: re-insulated, with brand-new drywall everywhere except the living room’s wood ceiling, a new roof, new metal siding and new windows, new copper plumbing, an updated kitchen and two new bathrooms, new cottage fir floors, and brand-new exposed aggregate patios and covered porches.

Firelight on the big porch

The big covered porch is where summer evenings end: warm lights under the beams, a fire going, and the fields fading to blue.
