Country Estate
Fish Lake
A FireSmart country estate in a protected rural landscape — earned permit by permit.
Before a shovel went in the ground on this rural Summerland property, there was a permitting challenge most builders don’t encounter: an Environmentally Sensitive Development Permit triggered by the ecological sensitivity of the site. Whitfield handled it. Then we built a 3,200 square foot country estate that looks like it’s always belonged there.
