00:00Hi to the daily grind, and hello to incredible waterfront views,
00:05opulent homes, gorgeous interiors, and a lifestyle to match.
00:10Couple Jessica and Zach have just sold their home
00:13and are now looking to acquire a luxurious lakefront property
00:16with plenty of space to entertain their family and friends.
00:19I love this space.
00:22This is crazy.
00:24They're looking for lakefront luxury.
00:30Beach lovers Jessica and Zach are on the search for their perfect waterfront oasis.
00:34They need a space that seamlessly blends all their hobbies into one harmonious retreat.
00:39I'm Jessica.
00:40And I'm Zach.
00:41And we've been together for six years.
00:43We met on a dating app.
00:45You know, the modern way to meet the love of your life.
00:47She had a picture carrying her surfboard, and she replied to me,
00:51oh, where's that beach you're surfing at?
00:53We kind of bonded over our shared love for surfing and traveling.
00:57I'm a terrible surfer.
01:00I design large-scale weddings and parties.
01:03I work in the custom home world.
01:05We are both creative individuals, good vibes only.
01:09Zach and I inherited a home that we've been living in the last few years.
01:12I started to look into what the house was worth, and I was really surprised.
01:15We sold it, and now we're able to afford our forever home.
01:19On my wish list, I would love to have amazing views from wherever I am on the property.
01:23I would also like an open concept plan.
01:26We do a lot of entertaining and hosting.
01:28On my wish list, I'd love to have a workshop.
01:31I would also like to have a boathouse and a dock.
01:34For both of us, a beach is really important.
01:36We are really lucky that we have found ourselves in this position.
01:39We are grateful that we can go on this journey for our dream home.
01:43Agent Adam Coven will be working with Jessica and Zach to help find their forever home.
01:50Jessica and Zach just sold their house, and now they're able to afford their dream house.
01:54I have found the one for them, and they're going to be so excited.
01:57The first property Adam will be showing is Elegant Acres.
02:01This 8,000-square-foot French-inspired home features six bedrooms and five bathrooms.
02:07The great room features a floor-to-ceiling fireplace and exposed brick.
02:11The kitchen offers a butler's pantry and a French bistro.
02:14The primary retreat offers a spacious walk-in closet.
02:18The exterior features a saltwater pool and 600 feet of pristine water frontage.
02:23Good morning, Zach.
02:24Good morning, Jess.
02:25Hi, Adam.
02:26So good to see you.
02:27This, I think, could be the dream house.
02:29Oh, wow.
02:30Okay, this is stunning.
02:32This is gorgeous.
02:33The whole house is a French-inspired country manor.
02:37We're right now in two living spaces.
02:39We've got this beautiful living room, exposed brick, all-wood fireplace.
02:44And look at this ship lap that's framed by the tray ceiling.
02:47Now, this is a great place to entertain your guests, but you can retire to what I would say is a parlor.
02:51That recessed bar with the gingham skirts, almost like a maitre d' in that French bistro,
02:56we're beckoning you for an aperitif.
02:57I feel really transported to old-world France.
03:01This is such a good representation of our creative spirits.
03:04Looking at the double crown molding in the ceiling, the craftsmen of this house did an amazing job.
03:09I want to show you a very French-inspired kitchen just this way.
03:15Oh, wow.
03:16This kitchen is so beautiful.
03:18You start at the top with those coffered ceilings.
03:21Look at the beautiful curved lines on this range hood.
03:24We have a five-by-15-foot mind quartz top table, seating for three, and then an eat-in table for 10-plus guests.
03:32I'm impressed with the size of this custom range hood.
03:35It's such a high-end kitchen, but it feels cozy.
03:39One thing I'm noticing, Adam, I think the fireplace and the staircase block the view to my guests.
03:43Sometimes a chef's masterpiece needs a little privacy, too.
03:47There's a big surprise I can't wait to show you.
03:49Wow, this is really cool.
03:52So where we are now is a French-inspired prep area.
03:56We have this beautiful mahogany butcher block.
03:58We have a porcelain apron front sink.
04:01Behind me, we have a pantry disguised as a French bistro.
04:04I've got to say, Adam, it feels like I'm traveling through time.
04:07I'm kind of loving this maybe more than the kitchen.
04:10The good news is you get both for the price of one.
04:14I can't wait to show you the primary suite.
04:16Oh, wow.
04:19Okay, this is quite the room.
04:20This is beautiful.
04:21This primary suite is 600 square feet, two full walls of windows.
04:26You've got the shiplap.
04:27Look at the pendant nautical lights.
04:29I really like all the nautical touches they brought into this room.
04:32The porthole and the shiplap.
04:34I love this space.
04:36What's not to love?
04:37But I'd like to show you the en suite.
04:40Oh, my God.
04:42This is crazy.
04:43We have two vanities.
04:45We've got a gorgeous soaker tub and then a two-person tiled shower.
04:50And if that wasn't enough, through the archways into a 500-square-foot dressing area.
04:55I can picture myself in the soaker tub relaxing after a busy day.
04:59To be honest, Adam, we don't need all this opulence.
05:02I get it.
05:02You're out of your comfort zone.
05:04Let me take you down to the pool.
05:06Woo!
05:07It's a stunning view.
05:08Beautiful.
05:09We have this blue fiberglass saltwater pool.
05:12And then out to an unobstructed view, you're framed by herringbone brick.
05:17It's like Sienna, Italy.
05:18Which gives it a really nice texture and quality, Adam.
05:21It's really perfect.
05:22Zach, I want to show you this pool house.
05:24I thought about your creativity.
05:26This could be your workspace.
05:28It completely opens.
05:29It brings the outdoors in.
05:30If you're a little mentally blocked, though, grab your putter, hit a few balls, and then get back at it.
05:35I'm a huge golfer, and I can see myself working in the converted pool house, and then work on my short game.
05:41All right, let me take you down to the waterfront.
05:45This is spectacular.
05:47This is actually a completely man-made inlet, where you have 600 feet of waterfront and about 1,000 feet of hydrangeas.
05:54It's over-the-top beautiful.
05:56I'm really impressed with the engineering.
05:58My only qualms with it is that it's a tiny bit tight.
06:01My preference would have to be a boathouse.
06:03Unfortunately, there's no boathouses allowed to be built on this lake.
06:07But why don't we go recap inside?
06:11Jessica, Zach, we've seen this beautiful French-inspired house.
06:15We've got 8,000 square feet on 8 acres, 600 feet of waterfront, 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms.
06:22The price of this beautiful home is $7.2 million.
06:27The fact that it's on 8 acres, I see why it's that amount of money, Adam.
06:30Walking into the great room, the views of the lake, I thought were beautiful.
06:35Walking into the kitchen, I love the oversized quartz countertop.
06:39My issue with the kitchen was the obstructed view to the other living rooms.
06:43And walking into the ensuite, my concern is that dressing area is a little bit too opulent and big for us.
06:48But I could totally see that pool house being perfect for my workspace.
06:52Thank you so much for showing us this first phenomenal home.
06:55We're wondering if there's something you could show us a bit smaller and with a beach.
06:59And if you could find us a lake that allows boathouses, that would be great.
07:03Let me see what I can do.
07:04Thanks, Adam.
07:05We've never seen a house quite like this before.
07:08That being said, it was a little bit large for us.
07:10I'll find them something a little smaller with a beach and a boathouse.
07:16Jessica and Zach have sold their house and are now searching for their forever home on the lake.
07:21The first property they viewed was French-inspired with 8,000 square feet of living space.
07:27Grandview Estate is a 7,000 square foot home offering five bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
07:32The main floor features a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace.
07:36The gourmet kitchen showcases marble countertops.
07:39The primary suite includes a cozy fireplace.
07:42Additional amenities include a boathouse, an L-shaped dock, and a sandy beach with 225 feet of breathtaking water frontage.
07:51I found Jessica and Zach something a little bit smaller, but with a big surprise.
07:55Well, good morning, Jess and Zach.
07:57Hey, Adam.
07:58Okay, you were looking for something a bit smaller.
07:59This is the place.
08:00Okay, this is stunning.
08:03Look at this view.
08:05Look at the lake right there.
08:07Let's start with the ceiling.
08:08Great pieces of architectural beaming.
08:10You've got this gas-burning fireplace.
08:12Cut stone from floor to ceiling.
08:14So, Adam, I love the lake view.
08:16It's all I really want.
08:17And, Adam, I love that fireplace.
08:19The fact that you said it was propane and I don't have to bring in all the wood.
08:22That's a plus.
08:23But I don't like the ceiling.
08:25I wish there was a little bit more texture like they've done with the floor.
08:28This is your wheelhouse.
08:29And if you want that done, you know who to call.
08:32Yourself.
08:33Yeah.
08:34Now let's take a look at the kitchen.
08:36Oh, I love how bright this kitchen is.
08:38This is an awesome kitchen.
08:39You've got this 6 by 12 feet center island.
08:43You have a commercial-grade gas range and seating over there for 6 to 8 with doors out to your
08:48covered patio space.
08:49I really love the size of this island, Adam.
08:51And I think they've done a great job matching the tone of the floor to the cabinets.
08:55And another thing I love about this space is this romantic dining room.
09:00There's a big surprise I can't wait to show you.
09:04This is nuts!
09:06Are you kidding me?
09:07A hockey room?
09:07This is crazy!
09:09I brought you here because you love to entertain.
09:12I can't wait to practice my slap shot.
09:13Can I just take a shot on net?
09:15Oh, yeah.
09:16You're going to go in net.
09:19Okay, let's see.
09:20See what you got.
09:21Okay, okay, okay.
09:23A deep left.
09:27Score!
09:28Woo!
09:30All right, you guys want to go to the penalty box?
09:32You want to see the rest of the house?
09:33Welcome to your primary bedroom.
09:35Wow, this is so serene.
09:37This is a stunning room.
09:39You've got a suede, textured wall, then this gas fireplace, and then your own walk-out terrace.
09:44I love the textured walls, the architectural ceiling.
09:48The details matter to us.
09:49Overall, I love this space.
09:51I've got to show you the ensuite next.
09:53Oh, yeah.
09:54This is really beautiful.
09:56This is exquisite.
09:57Let's start with this vanity.
09:58This is all custom designed.
10:00Our floors, we have a gorgeous Italian tile, beautifully oversized tub.
10:04We have this unbelievable two-person shower.
10:07We have a water closet that's been lovingly wallpapered.
10:10I love the dual control in that shower so that we can each set our own temperature.
10:14With that said, we would prefer two sinks.
10:17Everything can be modified.
10:18It's time and money.
10:20Let's take a look at the grounds.
10:21This is beautiful.
10:23I want to show you this gorgeous terrace.
10:25You're standing on beautiful cut limestone.
10:27You can have 100 people here.
10:29This is a beautiful space.
10:30The entertaining possibilities are endless.
10:32It's feeling a little formal for us.
10:34It makes me feel like I'm a little bit underdressed right now.
10:37Well, that's true, but let me take you down to the waterfront.
10:41Oh, wow.
10:42You have a full outdoor kitchen, grill, fridge, freezer.
10:46This is just one more entertainment space that you can enjoy with your friends and family.
10:49Oh, it's beautiful.
10:50Wow.
10:51I'm really a fan of it down here right now.
10:53Yeah.
10:53The beach is flanked by cut limestone, spans along the entire 225 feet of waterfront that you have.
11:00This is a 50-foot concrete pier.
11:02You've got a boathouse, and you can actually park six boats.
11:05I feel like I could have my own personal marina.
11:07So you've seen this whole property.
11:09I think we go inside.
11:11We do a little recap.
11:13Okay, Zach and Jess, we've seen another gorgeous waterfront home.
11:177,000 square feet, five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, with 225 feet of waterfront.
11:24And the price of this property is $6.4 million.
11:28That's about a million less than the one we saw before.
11:31It's a little bit smaller.
11:32Yeah.
11:33Walking through the great room, it had beautiful views.
11:36I really liked the wide plank walnut floor, but I wish some of that texture had have transferred to the ceiling.
11:42Walking into the kitchen, I love the amazing scale of the island.
11:46And I was not expecting to see an ice rink in a house.
11:50One of the coolest things I've ever seen.
11:52And I don't mean that because it's ice.
11:55Walking out to the terrace, it feels like it's a bit too formal, but I was really impressed with the concrete pier.
12:01We asked to see a smaller home, and you have delivered.
12:04Do you think maybe, Adam, we could see even a tiny bit smaller one?
12:08Let me see what I can do.
12:09Awesome.
12:10Adam met so many of our expectations.
12:12I'm wondering if it's still a little bit too big.
12:14And the landscaping just a tiny bit too formal for us.
12:17Jessica and Zach are on the hunt for their dream lakeside home.
12:23The first house had a French-inspired aesthetic.
12:26The second property housed an indoor hockey rink and a boathouse.
12:30Pebble Beach is a 5,500-square-foot bungalow featuring three bedrooms and four bathrooms.
12:37The great room boasts a marble fireplace.
12:40The commercial-grade kitchen includes a cozy breakfast nook.
12:43The primary suite offers a spacious walk-in closet.
12:46The lower level features a generous family room.
12:49Outside, there's a 70-foot dock and 200 feet of water frontage.
12:53Jessica and Zach have been very fortunate to afford a luxury home on the water.
12:57This one's a little bit more to their artistic desire.
13:00Good morning, Jess.
13:01Good morning, Zach.
13:02Good morning, Adam.
13:03You asked for something a little smaller.
13:04Let's go inside, and I'll show you.
13:06Okay, this is quite a space.
13:10This room is spectacular.
13:11Isn't it great?
13:12You've got this three-tiered tray ceiling.
13:15It's literally the wedding cake of ceilings.
13:18We have a beautiful, polished marble mantle and gorgeous gas fireplace.
13:22I love the stonework on the fireplace.
13:25And as a craftsman, I can appreciate these floors.
13:28With that said, it's feeling museum-ish with some of these fancier details.
13:33Truly, the elegance of this room is in the floor to the ceiling.
13:36Everything in between is what you are going to personalize.
13:39I want to show you a very amazing kitchen.
13:42Oh, wow.
13:43Yeah, this is a nice size.
13:44This is a beautifully ornate kitchen.
13:46Look at this island.
13:47We have these bolsters, carved, gorgeous.
13:50And then table for five, a beautiful view looking towards the waterfront as well.
13:54I love that the eating area has a beautiful walkout.
13:57And the woodwork is top shelf.
13:59I'm really not loving the darkness of the cabinets.
14:02But I think I can solve this with a can of paint.
14:05Now let's take a look at where you're going to sleep.
14:07Welcome to your primary bedroom.
14:09Oh, this is a beautiful, bright space.
14:11You have your bedroom, but right off to the waterfront is your private sitting area.
14:16And then we have doors walking out to our terrace.
14:19I think this is a beautiful, bright room.
14:21I think the luxurious feel of the house is carried right on into here.
14:26Now you are standing in front of a beautiful walk-in closet.
14:28Oh, wow.
14:31Okay, this is quite the space.
14:33This is pretty luxurious, isn't it?
14:34We have mahogany, fluted, beveled edges.
14:37A whole cupboard devoted to shoes.
14:39This is phenomenal.
14:40The rest is for your clothes.
14:42I got to show you the ensuite next.
14:45Okay, this is beautiful.
14:46Very lavish.
14:46Now first off, I have to tell you, we're waiting for some mirrors, but we have a brand new, gorgeous marble, double vanity.
14:54We have a stone soaker tub.
14:56Adam, I love that shower.
14:58The glass is floor to ceiling.
15:00It's spectacular.
15:01It's a beautiful use of space.
15:04My only qualm right now is just our only window in this space.
15:07Does look over to the driveway.
15:09We can have those windows frosted.
15:11The lower level has a big surprise.
15:12I can't wait to show you.
15:13Wow, this is so us, Adam.
15:17This is really more like the main level of the house.
15:20This is your walk out to the outside.
15:22We've got this electric fireplace.
15:24They've sourced Italian tile that has veining of blues in it.
15:28I think we would do a lot of our entertaining and hanging out down here.
15:31And I really like those coffered ceilings.
15:33It still gives this room a bit of elegance.
15:35I'm glad you like this.
15:36Why don't we go and take a look outside?
15:39Oh, this is a pretty space.
15:41We have all this great area for conversation.
15:44It's covered for the elements.
15:45And then we're set up for dining.
15:47And your last zone is the sun deck.
15:49I do love the uncovered portion, but I love that we have options.
15:53I think this could be a great space for having an outdoor barbecue kitchen area.
15:57Why don't we take a look at the lake from this vantage point?
15:59Look at this view.
16:03This space has a lot of potential, Adam.
16:05It's a really nice sloped entry, 70-foot dock.
16:08You've got a beautiful beach area and 200 feet of waterfront for your advantage.
16:13Compared to the inlet we saw, I think this is much more accessible to the boats.
16:17And this lake does allow boathouses.
16:19I can pretty much see the boathouse out there already.
16:21We've seen the lakefront.
16:24Why don't we go in and recap?
16:27Jessica, Zach, we've seen this amazing home.
16:29It's 5,500 square feet, three bedrooms, four baths.
16:33We have 200 feet of waterfront.
16:35And the price of this property is $4.6 million.
16:39It's a good price considering how luxurious it is.
16:41Significantly less than some of the other properties we've seen.
16:44Walking into the house, I was really impressed with the ceilings and with the inlaid wood flooring.
16:49With that said, the living room is just a bit fancy for us.
16:54Overall, I felt like the kitchen was just a little bit too dark.
16:57I thought the ensuite had everything we needed.
16:59However, there was no privacy from the neighbors.
17:02Adam, you've shown us three amazing properties, all with amenities we could have only dreamed of.
17:08It's going to be really hard to decide.
17:10We're grateful that we've been given this opportunity to look for our forever dream house on the lake.
17:14It's going to be a really tough choice.
17:19Real estate agent Adam Coven has shown Jessica and Zach three unique lakefront homes, each catering to the couple's love of creativity.
17:27Oh, my.
17:28What a face.
17:29This is nuts.
17:30But which beautiful lake home will they choose?
17:33Well, guys, we've seen three excellent properties.
17:35I would love to know what your thoughts are on the first one, Elegant Acres.
17:41This 8,000 square foot home sits on eight acres and includes six bedrooms and five bathrooms.
17:47The great room features a floor to ceiling fireplace and exposed brick.
17:51The kitchen offers a butler's pantry and French bistro.
17:55The primary suite provides a spacious en suite and a walk-in closet with custom cabinetry.
17:59The exterior features a saltwater pool and 600 feet of water frontage.
18:05Elegant Acres is on the market for $7.2 million.
18:10Walking into the great room, I loved how quaint and French-inspired it was.
18:15My issue with the kitchen was the obstructed view to the living room.
18:18In the en suite, I love the glass-walled shower and the soaker tub.
18:22At the end of the day, though, is that dressing room and en suite is a little bit too opulent for our tastes.
18:28I felt like the inlet was an astonishing build.
18:30However, not having a boathouse was a bit of a miss for me.
18:33What did you think of the second property we saw, Grandview Estate?
18:36Grandview Estate is a 7,000 square foot home offering five bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
18:42The main floor features a great room with a stone fireplace.
18:46The gourmet kitchen showcases marble countertops.
18:49The primary suite includes a fireplace.
18:50Additional features include an indoor hockey rink, a boathouse, and 225 feet of water frontage.
18:58Grandview Estate is listed at $6.4 million.
19:02Walking into the great room, I loved how bright it was.
19:05And I loved the granite island in the kitchen.
19:07And I especially loved the fact that there was a rink in the house.
19:11That was a wow factor for us.
19:13Walking into the en suite, I thought the finishes were beautiful.
19:17My only issue was that the vanity only had one sink.
19:19Walking out to the exterior was absolutely beautiful.
19:23I'm just wondering if it felt a bit too formal for us.
19:26I really liked that that property had its own boathouse.
19:29It was like having my own marina.
19:30And lastly, your thoughts on Pebble Beach.
19:33This 5,500-square-foot bungalow includes three bedrooms and four bathrooms.
19:39The living room features a floor-to-ceiling marble fireplace.
19:43The commercial-grade kitchen has a breakfast nook.
19:46The primary suite includes a generous walk-in closet.
19:49The lower level features a family room and a walk-out to the backyard.
19:53Outside, there's a dock and 200 feet of water frontage.
19:57Pebble Beach is priced at $4.6 million.
20:00Walking into that house, I was very impressed with the triple-trade ceiling.
20:06However, I did feel like that great room is just a bit too fancy for us.
20:10And that kitchen was a bit too dark.
20:12Entering that en suite, I thought it had everything we needed.
20:15However, there was no privacy from the neighbours.
20:18I thought the terrace was a great space with multiple entertainment zones.
20:22Jessica and Zach, what property are you eliminating?
20:25We're going to eliminate elegant anchors.
20:30In the end, I think it was just a little bit too big for us.
20:34So, have you guys made a decision?
20:36Well...
20:37We're going to take Pebble Beach.
20:42Because of the lower price point, we thought we could take that money
20:44and upgrade the kitchen with more bells and whistles.
20:47We are so happy.
20:49This is so exciting.
20:50We can't believe that we found our dream home.
20:52I love you, honey.
20:53I love you too.
20:54It wasn't about the size of the property.
20:56It was about making it their own.
20:58I wish them all the best.
