Some rentals give you a place to live. This one gives you a place to be.

Set on one of the most spectacular waterfront estates in Bonner County, this fully furnished two-bedroom, two-bath carriage house occupies the upper level of the estate's garage building - a private, self-contained residence with its own covered entry, finished to a standard most primary homes never reach. Nine-month lease, every utility included, and a stretch of shoreline out front that people plan entire vacations around.

Inside the 900 square feet, nothing was value-engineered. White oak floors run throughout. The kitchen centers on a waterfall-edge quartz island with a gas cooktop and seating for three, backed by full-height oak cabinetry, double wall ovens, a full-size stainless refrigerator, and a dishwasher - a real cook's kitchen, not a token galley. A wall of sliding glass opens the living area onto the covered patio, so in the warmer months the whole space becomes one room. Ductless mini-split heating and cooling and ceiling fans keep it comfortable year-round, and a stacked ASKO washer and dryer is built discreetly into a run of custom oak millwork alongside generous pantry and closet storage.

The primary bedroom takes in filtered lake views through divided-light windows, with a wall-mounted TV and a private ensuite bath. The second bedroom is set up as a bunk room - ideal for kids, guests, or a home office with a place for visitors to land. Both bathrooms are finished in honed stone, hex tile, and floating oak vanities with backlit mirrors; the primary bath has a double vanity and an oversized walk-in shower.

Step outside and the 200 square foot covered patio becomes the best room in the house: reclaimed timber beams overhead, hex-tile flooring underfoot, a built-in stainless grill with side burner and warming drawers, and room for a full dining and lounge setup, framed by old-growth pines with the lake beyond.

Then there's the estate itself. Residents enjoy access to a private sand beach, a lakeside firepit terrace set right at the water's edge, a private dock and an offshore floating swim platform, a lakeside sun deck, a pickleball court, and manicured lawns with a swing set beneath the trees. Paddleboard before work. Watch the sun drop behind the mountains from the firepit. Walk fifty yards home.

One garage bay is included, with generous additional parking on the drive. The unit is fully furnished and completely turnkey - bring your suitcase and settle in.

Please note: this is a second-floor residence accessed by a private covered entry and an interior stairway. There is no ground-floor living space.

Furnishings: the interior is fully furnished. All outdoor patio furniture and umbrellas throughout the property - on the unit's covered patio, the beach, the dock, and the firepit terrace - are removed and placed in storage for the season prior to occupancy. Some listing photos were taken in summer and show that furniture in place. Residents are welcome to bring their own outdoor furniture.

Lease term: September 15 – June 15. Showings by appointment only - absolutely no drive-bys. This is a private estate and the owners' privacy is strictly protected.
