Penny Turko Realtor Penny Turko eXp Realty. Real Estate Services Merritt, BC. Local Realtor® w/ 17+ yrs experience helping you buy, sell & love where you live. Hey there!

Real estate tips, local gems & scenic Harley adventures in scenic Nicola Valley. Let’s find your perfect place! 🏡✨ I’m Penny Turko... real estate matchmaker, design lover, and proud Merrittonian. I absolutely love to sell Real Estate in Merritt, BC! I help people just like YOU buy and sell homes here in the beautiful Nicola Valley, with less stress, more clarity, and maybe even a few laughs along the way. I’m your "give it to you straight" guide; honest, ethical, and all about creative solutions that make your real estate journey easier. I believe real estate isn’t just about the numbers, square footage and lot size… it’s about how a home makes you feel. The right space should spark joy, induce peace, and inspire the next chapter of your life. Whether you're selling a place you’ve loved or hunting for the one that makes your heart skip, I’m here for it. And if you’re staying put but craving a refresh? I’ve got design tips for that too. A bit about me:

I kicked off my Merritt BC real estate career way back in 1989, stepped away in 2005 to raise our our kids, and I came back in 2025 eager to bring fresh energy, seasoned experience, and creative ideas to today’s real estate market. Since 1989, my hubby and I have lived here in Merritt, where life feels a little sweeter now that we’ve become grandparents. When I’m not helping clients, you’ll find me hiking local trails, riding our Harley through the Valley, binge-watching design shows, or hanging out with my favorite humans. Let’s connect! DM me on Instagram , shoot me an email, or give me a call at (250) 378-7913. I’d love to hear your story. I can’t wait to get to know you better! Talk soon,
Penny

A million-dollar feeling doesn’t always come with a million-dollar price tag. ✨

Imagine starting your day with panoramic Nicola Lake and valley views, stepping outside onto your massive deck, and having an entire acre of privacy surrounding your home. 🌿🌊

This custom 3,106 sq.ft., 4 bedroom, 3 bath home was designed to make the most of its setting, with breathtaking views from nearly every room, vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a beautiful oak kitchen with skylight and large island, spacious living areas, and patio doors opening onto the expansive 12x52 deck.

And then there’s the lifestyle…

🎨 A stunning 210 sq.ft. heated & cooled atrium with 13 foot ceilings for painting, gardening or simply getting lost in the scenery
🌿 Mature, natural landscaping with exceptional privacy
🍅 Greenhouse & raised garden beds
🔥 Sauna & hot tub
🎱 Huge rec room with pool table
📚 Sunroom and multiple spaces to sit, relax and take in the changing seasons
🐔 And yes… even a space for your own little backyard flock if you want it!

Located just 2.5 hours from the Lower Mainland, this is a chance to trade the everyday rush for more space, nature, creativity and that unmistakable Nicola Lake lifestyle.

What if the next chapter of this home’s story is meant to be yours? ❤️

There’s something special about a home that has been genuinely lived in and loved.

For 49 years, this was the place where a family grew, children were raised, gardens were planted, celebrations happened, and ordinary days became the memories you keep forever.

Now it’s ready for a new family to write the next chapter.

Set on a beautiful 0.292-acre lot, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers nearly 2,000 sq. ft. of comfortable living space, two WETT-certified wood-burning stoves, a generous 16’ x 19’ deck, established gardens, mature fruit trees and berry bushes, three sheds including a workshop, and a magnificent willow tree that gives the backyard its own park-like feel. 🌳

There’s room to garden, room for the kids to play, room for hobbies and projects and plenty of room to simply enjoy being home.

📍 2813 Cranna Crescent, Merritt, BC
💲 $459,900
🏡 MLS® 10396655

Maybe you’re looking for your first home. Maybe you need more room for your growing family. Or maybe you’re ready to downsize without giving up the yard and outdoor space you’ve always loved.

Whatever your next chapter looks like, this one is worth seeing.

Some homes have that rare combination of space, privacy, personality and location! 🙌🏻👌

1913 Granite Avenue is a great example of that - it’s a unique two-storey home with a layout that feels different from what you typically find in Merritt.

You’ve got three large bedrooms upstairs, spacious living and dining areas, an oak kitchen with a large island and loads of storage, a family room with gas fireplace, upstairs laundry, a spacious primary ensuite and a huge third bedroom over the garage.

Then there’s the part you don’t fully appreciate until you’re here: a large covered deck, exceptionally private fenced backyard, shed and double garage. 🌿 Plus the basement is ready for your next finishing project or to store all your treasures.

And when you want to head out, downtown is just one block away; groceries, restaurants, the pub, parks, the post office and the arena are all within easy reach. 👣

It really is the best of both worlds. 🤗

I LOVE this strategy, this is why… ❤️🏡

D & J knew they didn’t need to buy their forever home right out of the gate.

They wanted something that was affordable, beautifully renovated, clean, move-in ready and most importantly - right for them and their growing family. ❤️

This awesome home checked all those boxes.

With new drywall, Hardy plank siding, an updated kitchen and bathroom, plus thoughtful additions, it’s been completely transformed into the perfect place to start their life together.

And instead of continuing to pay rent, they’ve bought a home that cuts their housing costs almost in half.

👏 THIS is what smart, savvy young buyers do.

They buy something that makes sense now, build some equity, enjoy the home, and give themselves the opportunity to step into their next home as their family and life evolve.

You don’t have to buy the biggest house you can qualify for.

You just need to buy the right house for where you are today and where you want your future self to be. ❤️

I’m so proud of D & J for recognizing that. And with a new baby arriving in just a few months, I can’t think of a more exciting reason to celebrate this purchase! 👶🏼🏡

Congratulations, D & J! Here’s to your first home, your growing family and all the adventures ahead. ❤️

And a big thank you to Bailee Allen with Flex Realty Canada for the smooth transaction on the listing side.
