Anglemont Real Estate & Community Guide
A dramatic mountainside lake community nestled along the North Shuswap slopes, offering panoramic vistas, golf, marina amenities, and steep winter logistics.
Community Overview & Geography
Anglemont is a distinctive residential settlement cascading down the south-facing slopes of Mount McKonkey into Shuswap Lake. Known for its golf course, Anglemont Marina, and commanding 180-degree views across the lake toward the South Shuswap, it draws retirees, vacation home owners, and seasonal recreationists seeking elevation and value. Lived experience here is defined by topography: properties rise steeply from lake level, trading walkability for dramatic vistas and true mountain-lake seclusion.
Located along the north shore near the eastern reach of Squilax-Anglemont Road, approximately 1 hour northwest of Salmon Arm and 35 minutes past the Squilax bridge. Properties span from lakefront along the road to tiered residential roads carved into steep mountainsides.
Housing Stock & Property Character
The housing inventory features hillside single-family homes, classic A-frame cottages, modern architectural view builds, modular homes, and affordable vacant building lots. The terraced hillside layout ensures many properties enjoy expansive lake views, though building sites frequently require specialized engineered foundation and retaining work.
Local Property Trade-offs
Topography is the defining factor in Anglemont. Upland roads experience significantly higher snowfall than the lake below, with road grades demanding robust winter tires and private snowplowing services for steep driveways. Water is supplied to many properties by the CSRD-owned Anglemont Water System (which has seen capital upgrades and corresponding fee structures), while other properties rely on private community systems or lake intakes. Wastewater is 100% private septic on sloping terrain.
What Buyers Should Verify Before Submitting an Offer
Confirm whether the property is connected to the CSRD Anglemont Water System or a private utility; inspect septic field location, pump chambers, and replacement area feasibility on sloping ground; review driveway pitch and winter accessibility; verify wildfire-interface insurance requirements.
Unincorporated community administered by CSRD Electoral Area F. The CSRD operates the local community water utility. Fire suppression is provided by the Anglemont Volunteer Fire Department.
Who Thrives in Anglemont
Best suited for seasonal vacationers, golf-and-boat enthusiasts, and independent retirees comfortable with mountain roads and distance from major hospitals in exchange for panoramic vistas, boating access, and affordable lakeside property.
