If, after a long winter spent in a downtown condo, you've been dreaming of easy access to ski clubs, rolling hills, and open waters, it's your lucky day.
Fresh to the market in The Blue Mountains, 141 Interlaken Court is asking $5,975,000 for a retreat-like lifestyle experience that could just as easily be called priceless.
With 5+2 beds, 6 full baths and 3 half baths, and 247-feet of private, wooded ravine off the back of the property, this home is ideal for year-round nature lovers keen on calling the end of a cozy cul-de-sac their own.
As its glamour flows, uninterrupted, from the expansive outdoor entertaining areas through to the all-natural and pristine indoor finishes, 141 Interlaken has been dubbed a "mountain masterpiece," and for good reason.
Outside, the property boasts several covered decks and walk-out patios. Among them, a custom, oversized fire pit waits for friends to gather 'round on warm summer nights. Stone walkways make a treat of passing from one of these outdoor hubs to the next, while the home's natural surroundings provide unmatched views from all angles.
Enter the abode to be met by a marriage of intricacy and durability; walls of glass, wood and steel beams, stone and panelled walls, and soaring ceilings are all hallmarks of this property's interior experience. The soft essence of white oak hardwood is balanced, beautifully, by sturdy concrete and quartz counters.
Boasting views of the ski hills, the Great Room is complete with a custom, two-sided wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen, meanwhile, is a foodie's dream; the large island will easily accommodate 10.
Throughout the home you'll find seven bedrooms, including two primary: One on the main floor, and one on the second storey. In the case of both, floor-to-ceiling windows and doors open to private decks.
Downstairs, too, balance is aplenty. The indoor sauna and in-ground Gunite pool (with a cascading water wall) provide the perfect place to wind down after a day on the slopes. Meanwhile, a games room -- finished with a pool table, a TV and bar, a gas fireplace, and a walk-out terrace -- all but declares, "when you're not in the mood to wind down, you don't have to."

And finally, the home enjoys balance -- a sense of equilibrium -- via the contrasts taking place in its direct environment, too.
While The Blue Mountains are an ideal location for anyone seeking action and adventure in their day-to-day, the essence of the natural landscape, just shy of Georgian Bay, is one of serenity. Beauty and ease flow down the hillside as easily as a pair of skis, and this property absorbs every drop.
It's said that nature does not hurry, yet all is accomplished. Such may be so, but when it comes to snagging this home, you best get a move on... lest someone else "accomplishes" signing their name to it before you do.
