00:01Nothing beats life on the lake, saying goodbye to the daily grind, and hello to incredible waterfront views, opulent homes,
00:12gorgeous interiors, and a lifestyle to match.
00:16Crystal and Tristan are looking to trade their city life for tranquil lakeside living, with plenty of outdoor space for
00:23their young son to enjoy.
00:24This kitchen is magnificent.
00:27And this wall of windows, it really took my breath away.
00:30They're looking for lakefront luxury.
00:36Having outgrown their city home, Crystal and Tristan are hoping to move their young family to the lake.
00:42I'm Crystal.
00:43And I'm Tristan.
00:44And we've been married for 15 years.
00:46She actually told me when she was 16 that, oh, we're going to get married one day.
00:51And I looked at her like, what?
00:52I thought it was crazy.
00:53And yeah, it's been bliss ever since?
00:56Something like that.
00:58So I'm a realtor in the city.
01:00I specialize in primary residence.
01:02We have one son.
01:03He's four years old.
01:04In the city, it feels costiful.
01:06It feels very tight.
01:07We prefer to have some space.
01:09I grew up in the islands.
01:10And so I really would love to just be close to water.
01:14So in my wish list, I want a big gourmet kitchen.
01:18For me, if we're moving out of the city, I need to see the lake.
01:21I'm also a fan of high ceilings.
01:22And I need a walk-in closet.
01:25Guys, yes, she does.
01:29On both of our wish lists, we want a big patio for entertaining.
01:33We're really looking for a place where we can make memories with our family and with each other.
01:38Reba Wilson will be working with Crystal and Tristan to find their dream lakefront home.
01:43Today, I'm showing Crystal and Tristan this amazing home.
01:46It's got really high ceilings.
01:48I'm hoping it'll be their forever home.
01:50Chateau on the Lake is a 5,000-square-foot French country-style home with four bedrooms and five bathrooms.
01:58The open-concept main floor is vaulted ceilings and a variety of areas for entertaining.
02:05The gourmet kitchen has a large marble island.
02:08The large primary bedroom has a spa-like ensuite.
02:11The lower level extends the living space with a wet bar.
02:15Outside, the property offers a large patio for entertaining and 250 feet of water frontage.
02:23Good morning, Crystal and Tristan.
02:25Good morning, Reba.
02:26I think you guys will like this modern French farmhouse.
02:29Let's go have a look.
02:30Sounds good.
02:31Let's do it.
02:32Wow.
02:33Beautiful.
02:34Babe, I love it.
02:34Yeah.
02:35It's gorgeous.
02:36I thought you'd love this open-concept space.
02:38We're in the conversation area, and the ceilings here soar to 18 feet.
02:42You have exposed beams.
02:43You also have a wood-burning fireplace, exposed wine bar, and a fabulous wet bar, which accesses to your dining
02:51room.
02:52We both have really large families.
02:53I love the open-concept layout.
02:55It's really conducive for entertaining.
02:58And I'm in love with these ceilings.
03:00Like, the height is perfection for me.
03:02The one thing I would say that I'm missing, that one big wow view of the lake.
03:07There's more to come and plenty of views, so let's carry on.
03:11Oh, yes, please.
03:13This kitchen is stunning.
03:14Polished marble on the counters and also along the backsplash.
03:18This island is 11 by 5.
03:20There's room for six guests to sit at your counter here.
03:23I love the sink.
03:24I love the position.
03:26When I'm entertaining, I can still speak to my guests.
03:29I love the flow of the kitchen.
03:30I just love how everything is set up.
03:32The view is stunning.
03:33I can see literally to the other side.
03:35Like, it's beautiful.
03:36Your appliances are all integrated.
03:38You've got a full freezer and a full fridge.
03:40The six-burner gas stove has a griddle in it, and it also has a double ovens underneath.
03:45My beautiful, lovely wife here can make sure that the eggs are done on the griddle.
03:50Or you can learn how to make the eggs yourself.
03:53Fair enough.
03:54Deal.
03:55All right, I don't want to get in the middle of this debate, but let's go to the primary bedroom.
04:00There are no eggs in there.
04:01I'll follow you.
04:02Oh, gosh.
04:04Wow.
04:04Wow.
04:05This primary suite is completely anchored around that view, and you have access to your balcony here.
04:11To wake up and see this is literally what we're looking for.
04:15And Crystal, this is a whole wall of closet space.
04:18For me, a walk-in closet is like a dressing room.
04:22It's not really quite where I was going.
04:25Well, let's take a look at the ensuite bathroom, and maybe we can win you back there.
04:29Oh.
04:30Oh, wow.
04:31This is a very bright space.
04:32Yeah, and I love the view.
04:34There's a floating vanity, which has custom millwork, large walk-in shower, glass surround.
04:38And the pièce de résistance is this fabulous soaker tub.
04:42The his and her sinks are an added bonus.
04:44I feel like there's a lot of dead space from the tub to the toilet.
04:48It could have been used way better.
04:49Well, let's go to the lower level.
04:51There's so much more to see.
04:53Wow.
04:54Riva, we were not expecting all this space.
04:56You have this fabulous wet bar.
04:58On this side, we have the median space.
05:00We've been talking a lot about that lakefront.
05:03Let's go take a look at it.
05:05Wow.
05:06Jeez.
05:07Riva.
05:07This is beautiful.
05:09This is to die for.
05:11The balcony upstairs is more for viewing, but this is your principal outdoor hangout space.
05:17In the middle, you have this swim spa, and there's a propane fire pit.
05:21I love to swim, so being able to get that exercise in is awesome.
05:25I can see my family in this space.
05:30Crystal and Tristan, we've just seen this incredible 5,000-square-foot, four-bedroom, five-bathroom home, 250 feet of
05:38water frontage.
05:39The price of the property is $3.2 million.
05:43I'm actually pleasantly surprised.
05:45When we walked into that conversation area, I really loved the height of the ceilings and the beams.
05:50My issue, when we walked in, there was no amazing view of the lake.
05:54Walking into the kitchen, I finally get the view of the lake.
05:58It was breathtaking.
05:59The primary ensuite was a nice big size.
06:02The only issue that we both had was there's just a lot of dead space.
06:05When we walked outside, it was absolutely amazing.
06:08I could see us hanging out there as a family, the three of us.
06:11Riva, this first home was fantastic, but I'd like to see another one with better views right when you walk
06:16in.
06:17And that walk-in closet, please.
06:19Not a problem. I'll see what I can do.
06:22Crystal and Tristan seem to really like this home, but I think they didn't have the views that they wanted
06:27from the main floor.
06:28The next one I'm going to show them might fit the bill.
06:35Crystal and Tristan are looking to relocate their young family from the claustrophobic city to the tranquility of lakefront living.
06:43The first home they toured offered contemporary open concept living spaces.
06:47Sea of Glass is a 5,000 square foot modern home with four bedrooms and six bathrooms.
06:53The great room has floor to ceiling windows.
06:55The chef's kitchen is fully updated with seamless outdoor access for entertaining.
07:01The primary bedroom has a walkout.
07:04Outdoors, there's an expansive patio, sandy beach, and 130 feet of water frontage.
07:11Good morning, Crystal and Tristan.
07:13Good morning.
07:14You wanted a little bit more view, and I think this one will satisfy you.
07:18Fantastic.
07:18Sounds good. We're excited.
07:19Oh, yes.
07:21My gosh.
07:21Yes.
07:22Stunning.
07:23Fabulous.
07:24I cannot believe the height of the ceilings in this room.
07:27They soar to 24 feet, and you have 10 feet in the rest of the living space.
07:32There is a gas fireplace surrounded by glass.
07:35Tristan's favorite part, I'm sure, this incredible view showcased by this double height window.
07:40I love the fact that the whole wall is glass.
07:42It's almost like artwork looking out.
07:44A little excited?
07:45Um, just a bit.
07:47Good to hear.
07:48Now, I'm going to take you to the kitchen.
07:50Yes, Reba, this is it.
07:52This is what I'm talking about.
07:53This is huge.
07:53This kitchen is magnificent.
07:55This quartz island is 12 by 5 1⁄2.
07:58You also have a 60-inch gas stove.
08:01It's got a grill and double ovens, commercial-grade fridge and freezer, second fridge in the corner, and this wine
08:08fridge.
08:09Crystal, if you just want to pull that out.
08:11Oh, that's cool.
08:12Wow.
08:12I like it.
08:13All your accessories.
08:14I can see myself cooking in here.
08:16I love the counter space.
08:17I really also love the cabinetry, that little bit of rustic.
08:21Now, behind us is the dining room.
08:22It's set up for 10, and I just want to show you one feature.
08:25Wow.
08:29Here we go.
08:31Here we go.
08:33Here we go.
09:16Here we go.
09:24Here we go.
09:34Here we go.
09:42Here we go.
09:49Here we go.
09:52We'll have to try the hammock.
09:52Of course.
09:54Careful.
09:55Don't fall.
09:57Are you okay?
09:59I'll just stay away from the hammock.
10:01Let's go down.
10:03I love it.
10:04I love the landscape in here.
10:05This landscape has this nice gradual slope down to the water.
10:10Wow.
10:11Endless views.
10:13This is beautiful.
10:14130 feet of water frontage, and we have this lovely dock.
10:17I love that there's entry for our sun and the sandy beach, sand castles and the whole nine.
10:22I love it.
10:22That concludes the tour.
10:23Let's go back inside and recap after you.
10:30Crystal and Tristan, we've just seen this 5,000 square foot, four bedroom, six bathroom home with 130 feet of
10:36water frontage.
10:38The price of this property is $3.7 million.
10:42Because of the backyard, I think it makes sense.
10:44When we walked into the living room, I was so happy that there were amazing views of the lake.
10:50When I walked into that kitchen, I could not get over how huge it was.
10:54When you opened up the glass sliding doors, I loved how the outdoors was connected with the indoors.
10:59I also loved the primary bedroom.
11:01It had the walk-in closet for my beautiful wife over here, and I had to walk out to a
11:04beautiful balcony with beautiful water views.
11:06Now, the primary ensuite, it just felt like the space was a bit too small.
11:10When we headed outside, I just loved the gentle pathways all the way down to the water.
11:16I also like that there's a sandy beach area for a sun to play.
11:19Reba, I absolutely love this home.
11:21I just would really love to see something a little bit more rustic.
11:25This house was phenomenal.
11:27I especially love the outdoors.
11:28But I'm really hoping that Reba can show me something more rustic.
11:37Crystal and Tristan are searching for a spacious lakeside home with room for entertaining.
11:42The first property delivered an expansive patio, while the second impressed with panoramic lake views.
11:49Timber Shores is a 6,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom, six-bathroom, shaved log home.
11:55The great room has 30-foot vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows.
12:00The updated kitchen has two islands.
12:03And the primary suite has a spa-like en-suite.
12:07Outdoors, there's a wraparound deck, a suspended sun deck, and 350 feet of water frontage.
12:16Crystal and Tristan, you asked for something a little bit more rustic.
12:19It looks like a resort from the outside, so I cannot wait to see what inside looks like.
12:24Wow.
12:25Oh my goodness.
12:28Welcome to your great room.
12:29The ceilings soar to 30 feet high.
12:31You also have these pillars, another shade of the knotted pine, feature wall of windows, and they give you a
12:37lot of light.
12:38Now, Reba, you know I'm all about the views.
12:40So to walk in and see 30-foot ceilings and this wall of windows, it really took my breath away.
12:45I love that I can walk in and smell the timber.
12:49I can't wait to see the rest.
12:50I'm glad you're loving this.
12:51Let's go have a look at the kitchen.
12:53Oh, wow.
12:54Oh, I love this.
12:5660-inch-wide gas stove and, Tristan, a griddle.
13:00There's two counters for serving and cooking on.
13:04And then around the corner, there's a prep butler's pantry.
13:07I think they've done a great job making this a balance between rustic and modern.
13:11It's functional.
13:12It's accessible.
13:14Yeah, I really like this kitchen.
13:15We came from two beautiful homes with massive kitchens, and this one is a lot smaller.
13:20There's one other thing that I think might win you back on this kitchen, Tristan.
13:24Do you want to just flip that knob up there for me?
13:28It's a warming feature.
13:30Wow.
13:31Your eggs will stay warm much longer.
13:34Does that change your mind about the kitchen?
13:36I'm warming up to it.
13:37No pun intended.
13:39Let's take a look at the primary.
13:42Oh, this is a phenomenal room.
13:44I love this space.
13:46I love it.
13:46I thought you'd like this bedroom.
13:48High-peaked ceilings, three sides of windows, and a sliding door that goes out to your balcony.
13:54And, Crystal, there is a really large walk-in closet.
13:56The seating and the bed is facing the perfect direction to see this beautiful view every morning.
14:03It's amazing.
14:03It really is.
14:04So, I know none of the en-suites have really wowed you, but let's see if this one does it.
14:09Oh, wow.
14:11Wow, Reba, this is amazing.
14:12Look at this.
14:13This is a great en-suite bathroom.
14:15It has two sinks, this walk-in shower, and the soaker tub with views of the lake.
14:21It's a nice combination of rustic and modern.
14:24Everything's in the right position.
14:25We're not cramped.
14:27I just, I really like this space.
14:28I have a surprise for you on the lower level.
14:30Why don't we head down there now?
14:32Hmm.
14:34Wow.
14:35Everything you could ever want to entertain family and friends is located in this lower level.
14:40Over here, you have a golf simulator.
14:42Behind us, a bar.
14:43And there is a wellness center with a wet sauna, dry sauna, and a shower.
14:48What else can you ask for?
14:49This is the perfect basement.
14:51I'm just not sure we need all of this.
14:53It's just the three of us.
14:54I think that's a discussion you two maybe need to talk about, but we haven't even seen
14:59the outdoor space, so let's go do that now.
15:02Wow.
15:03You have two acres, and we're on your deck that's about 150 feet.
15:08Reba, I do like that it has a lot of land, but it's lacking that landscaping from the other
15:12homes.
15:12Yeah, I agree.
15:13Why don't I take you to my favorite spot, the sun deck?
15:16Oh, wow.
15:17Gosh, this is...
15:18This is incredible.
15:19It's a 350-foot water frontage, and you also have this dock and that sandy beach.
15:25This is so beautiful.
15:27Let's go inside and recap.
15:31Crystal and Tristan, we've just seen this 6,000-square-foot, two-acre property with 350
15:37feet of water frontage, seven bedrooms, and six bathrooms.
15:40The price of the property is $3 million.
15:44For the size that it is, I was expecting it to be a lot more.
15:47When we walked into the great room, I loved the windows all around and that view.
15:51I really loved all the rustic touches in this home.
15:54When I walk into the kitchen, my first thought is that this layout is perfect for us.
15:59You know, I felt like compared to the other homes, the kitchen was a little bit small.
16:02I was really happy to see the primary had a walk-in closet.
16:05And finally, an ensuite with the perfect layout.
16:08When we went down to the lower level, I loved the golf simulator, the bar, the spa, but the
16:13backyard was missing the landscaping from the other homes.
16:16However, the sun deck and that beach definitely made up for it.
16:20Riba, you showed us three amazing homes.
16:22All of them were so unique.
16:24This is going to be our forever home, so we do have a lot to think about.
16:28This is a great house.
16:30It actually feels like you're on a resort.
16:31We have a lot to ponder.
16:34Great.
16:38Agent Riba Wilson has shown three impressive lakefront properties to Crystal and Tristan,
16:44each offering unique indoor and outdoor amenities to cater to their young family's needs.
16:50It's really conducive for entertaining.
16:52I love the balcony.
16:53It extends the space of the room.
16:54Oh, wow.
16:55This is incredible.
16:57But which beautiful lake home will they choose?
17:00Crystal and Tristan, we've seen three fantastic homes.
17:03I'd love to know your thoughts on the first one, Chateau on the Lake.
17:07This home spans 5,000 square feet with four bedrooms and five bathrooms.
17:12The open concept main floor has vaulted ceilings and a variety of areas for entertaining.
17:17The gourmet kitchen has a large marble island.
17:21The large primary bedroom has lake views and a spa-like en suite.
17:26There's also a lower level for entertaining with a wet bar and walkout access.
17:31Outdoors, there's a large patio, a propane fire pit, and 250 feet of water frontage.
17:39Chateau on the Lake is listed for $3.2 million.
17:43When we walked into the main living area, I really liked the high ceilings.
17:47My only issue with the main space is that there was no great lake view.
17:51When we walked into the kitchen, finally, there were lake views.
17:55The primary bedroom was a great size.
17:57However, I wasn't a fan of just the built-ins.
18:00I felt like the primary en suite was a nice size.
18:02I feel like it was just a lot of dead space, and I don't know if I really want to
18:05spend money to renovate.
18:06Walking outdoors, I just cannot get over the size of that patio.
18:11It had amazing views.
18:12And what did you think of the second house?
18:14Sea of glass.
18:16This home offers 5,000 square feet of modern design with four bedrooms and six bathrooms set on an elevated
18:23natural lot.
18:24The main floor features an open concept layout with floor-to-ceiling windows.
18:29The chef's kitchen is fully upgraded with premium appliances and seamless outdoor access.
18:34Upstairs, the primary suite includes a balcony, a walk-in closet, and a refined en suite.
18:41Outdoors, there's beautifully landscaped grounds, a sandy beach, and 130 feet of water frontage.
18:48Sea of glass is on the market for $3.7 million.
18:51I was amazed to see amazing views, this huge wall of window.
18:56It was breathtaking.
18:57I cannot get over how big that kitchen was, and the island, great size as well.
19:03I felt the primary bedroom was a nice size, and I really liked the walkout.
19:06And I was happy to see it had a walk-in closet.
19:09I felt like the en suite had everything we wanted, just didn't have enough space.
19:13Outside, the landscaping was gorgeous.
19:16I love the fact that it had a little sandy area, which was shallow.
19:19For our sun.
19:19And lastly, I'd love to know what your thoughts are on timber shores.
19:25This home is a 6,000-square-foot shaved log retreat with seven bedrooms and six bathrooms on two acres.
19:33The main living space showcases 30-foot timber-beamed ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows.
19:39A chef's kitchen with high-end appliances completes the main floor.
19:43The primary suite includes a deluxe en suite, and there's a lower level, jam-packed with entertainment.
19:50Outdoors, there's a wraparound deck, a suspended sun deck, and 350 feet of water frontage.
19:56Timber Shores is priced at $3 million.
19:59Walking into the living room, I loved all the wood beams, the wooden accents, and the shaved logs.
20:05I cannot get over the views of the lake and that huge wall of windows.
20:09In the kitchen, I loved all the rustic details.
20:12Compared to the other homes, I felt that kitchen was the smallest.
20:15I was really happy to see the primary had a walk-in closet.
20:19And overall, the bathroom was really nice.
20:20The lower level was an awesome space for friends and family to entertain.
20:24My only thing is, maybe it's a bit too big, and compared to the other homes, the exterior was a
20:30bit lackluster.
20:31So what home are you going to eliminate?
20:33We're going to eliminate...
20:36Chateau on the Lake.
20:37There just wasn't enough of those great lake views.
20:40So have you made a decision yet?
20:42Reba, we chose Timber Shores.
20:46It was such a beautiful home.
20:48And with the money that we'll save, we can make that outdoor space exactly what we need it to be.
20:55This house is way too unique.
20:57We're going to be able to entertain lots of family members.
21:00I know that we wanted a lot of things in the backyard, but we will make our backyard exactly what
21:04we need it to be.
21:05And yeah, we're so happy.
21:07So happy.
21:07We're going to be able to entertain lots of people.
21:19We'll be able to entertain lots of people.
