Welcome to your weekend oasis. Pearadise on West Lake is nestled on a 2 acre property with a lovely pear orchard, a heated pool, cozy outdoor firepit and sweeping lake views. As you drive up to the property, you’re wrapped in a world of ease where memories will be made with the whole family. This newly renovated 4-bedroom house is comfortably designed for you to find moments of pause throughout your time here. Nestle around the rustic fireplace sharing stories of your daily adventures, take a nap in one of the three beautifully designed living spaces, or enjoy an evening of indulging in local wines and playing board games or vintage vinyl as you watch the waves of West Lake ebb and flow against the shore.

The home is designed for you to breathe into a place of inner calm, no matter the season. Whether you’ve traveled here in the sweet summer months or cold winter days, there is something for everyone to feel at home here. In the summer, take to kayaking and swimming in the heated pool and in those cooler months, enjoy lakeside walks, long cozy dinners, and evenings by the outdoor firepit. We were swept up in the magic of the season, and loved layering up to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors here.

Pearadise on West Lake is a two-story home that invites you to sit back and enjoy the view. Light cascades into the home with expansive windows and patio doors to feel the natural wonder of the outdoors inside. The beautifully designed primary room is one of our favourites, as the floor to ceiling windows lend for perfect views of West Lake.

Catch up with friends and family as you prepare meals together in the comfortable kitchen, and spend endless hours indulging in the meals you’ve created at the spacious dinner table, as the kids lounge on the couch watching their favourite movies. Then, take to making s’mores on the fire pit outside as you gaze up at the twinkling stars in the night sky.
