Rich in warmth and personality, this lovingly maintained residence offers the kind of character and comfort rarely found, all while providing flexible living options suited to today’s lifestyle.
Surrounded by mature landscaping and established gardens, the property feels like a private retreat tucked within the city. The outdoor spaces have been thoughtfully cared for, creating peaceful areas to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the changing Okanagan seasons. A fully fenced backyard offers privacy and security for children and pets, while two separate driveways and abundant parking provide ample room for vehicles, guests, RVs, or recreational equipment.
Inside the main home, classic details and inviting living spaces reflect the craftsmanship of the 1940s while embracing modern comfort.

The main residence offers four generously sized bedrooms and two bathrooms, creating a functional layout for families, professionals, or anyone seeking additional space. Every room feels thoughtfully maintained, balancing original charm with everyday livability.
Adding tremendous value and flexibility is the beautifully designed self-contained one bedroom, one bathroom suite. Featuring a more contemporary aesthetic, this separate space includes a practical mudroom ideal for storing skis, bikes, hiking gear, or everyday essentials—perfect for embracing the active Okanagan lifestyle. Whether utilized as a mortgage helper, long-term rental, short-term accommodation, nanny suite, guest quarters, or private space for extended family, the possibilities are extensive.
An exterior workshop further expands the functionality of the property, offering room for hobbies, projects, additional storage, or a dedicated workspace for those needing extra flexibility.
Location is another standout feature of the Blue Spruce Den. Situated within a desirable school catchment and within walking distance to downtown Vernon, local shops, restaurants, parks and amenities are all easily accessible. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to world-class recreation, including hiking and biking trails, Okanagan and Kalamalka Lakes, and Silver Star Mountain Resort, offering skiing, snowboarding, Nordic trails, mountain biking and year-round adventure just a short drive away.
Properties offering this combination of character, income potential, outdoor space, parking and lifestyle flexibility are increasingly rare.
