Welcome to nearly 5 acres of natural beauty, ocean views, and west coast lifestyle just north of Boat Harbour. Tucked away at the end of a quiet no-thru road, this architect-designed estate offers a peaceful retreat with beach access only a short stroll away. Enjoy kayaking, coastal walks, and watching local wildlife—otters, seals, sea lions, and even the occasional passing orca pod. The property is a harmonious mix of open meadows and mature forest, with fir, cedar, oak, and maple trees, a seasonal creek, and about 2 acres of wooded land. A deer-fenced orchard is planted with fruit trees, herbs, and raised garden beds, perfect for a self-sufficient lifestyle. Horse lovers will appreciate the 70x100 riding ring, lunging area, and a custom 40x24 three-stall barn with power, water, and a heated tack/tool room. Electric cross-fencing surrounds the property, which also includes a pump house and two sheds for additional storage. Inside, the home exudes rustic elegance with wide plank pine floors, wood-sashed thermal windows, and a stunning stone fireplace. A sunroom with a wood-burning cookstove adds a cozy character, while large windows overlook the ocean-facing pastures, and a west-facing cedar deck enhances the indoor-outdoor connection. The flexible layout offers 4–5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and 2 laundry areas, including a private-entry in-law suite with its own deck. The suite can be easily reconnected to the main home if desired. Efficient systems include an electric forced air heat pump, A/C, HRV, and backup electric heat. Water comes from a 150-ft well to a 1600-gallon cistern, supplemented by a 1200-gallon rainwater collection system with sand filtration and UV purification. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy coastal serenity, multi-functional land, and well-planned infrastructure, just minutes from town. A one-of-a-kind property with heart, history, and space to grow.
