/Built Above the Lake: A Custom Home in Hope by Black Birch Contracting
There’s something about Kawkawa Lake that invites you to breathe a little deeper. Maybe it’s the stillness of the water in the early morning, or the way the light catches the trees as the sun dips behind the mountains. For the team at Black Birch Contracting, it was the perfect place to build something truly unique — a home designed not just for living, but for experiencing the best of what Hope, BC has to offer.
Perched on an elevated lot above the lake, this custom home blends clean, modern lines with natural finishes that ground it firmly in its surroundings. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear that every inch of this home has been thoughtfully designed. Large windows frame sweeping views of Kawkawa Lake, making the landscape feel like part of the interior. The light pours in, reflecting off warm wood accents and creating a space that feels calm, open, and welcoming.
This isn’t a cookie-cutter build. It’s a home where small choices add up to something big — intentional flow between rooms, custom cabinetry that fits just right, and outdoor living spaces that make the most of the view. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee or hosting friends on the patio, the lake is always close by.
Black Birch Contracting has built a reputation for homes that feel connected — to the land, to the lifestyle, and to the people who live in them. This home in Hope is a perfect example of that philosophy in action.
It’s more than just a house. It’s a reminder of why we choose to live here in the Fraser Valley — close to nature, with space to breathe and room to build something that feels like home.
