1858 Abbott St, Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada V1Y1B5

RARE OFFERING! One of a kind opportunity to own a part of Kelowna history. This G.D Loane house was originally built in 1937 & designed by Robert Lyon in the Streamline Modern art deco style which emphasizes curving forms, long horizontal lines, & nautical elements. This award winning home is located in an established residential area of Kelowna’s historic Abbott Street neighborhood & is recognized with heritage designation.

The main floor includes a recent addition (2008) which added space for a beautifully finished kitchen with modern details but stayed in line with the Modern art deco style. Original features throughout the home such as original hardwood floors, wood burning fireplaces, unique nautical elements, plaster three step ceilings, and doors with original hardware make this home special.

The addition on the upper level includes a 5-piece ensuite with walk in tiled shower with multi spray heads and soaker tub and access to a private deck. The addition on the lower level created a 1 bedroom plus den (could act as second bedroom) self contained legal suite. The unique style of this home allows for an abundance of outdoor entertaining deck space on every level. The electrical, roof, windows, exterior doors & plumbing have all been updated. Double attached garage & professionally landscaped backyard as well as large manicured front yard space complete this exquisite home, just move in and simply enjoy this breathtaking piece of time only a minutes walk to the lake.
