Description
Discover your private paradise in the heart of Cowichan Bay, one of Vancouver Island’s most celebrated seaside communities. Comprised of 3 parcels of land, set on 82 acres, this prestigious waterfront estate offers an unmatched blend of coastal grandeur, sophisticated comfort, and resort-style amenities. Behind its private entry, manicured lawns, mature trees, and winding drive introduce an extraordinary collection of residences and leisure spaces that create a legacy property of rare distinction. The main residence, with over 9,600 sq ft, welcomes with a vaulted marble entry, sunken living room, formal dining, and a gourmet kitchen with granite counters, Gaggenau appliances, and twin Sub-Zero refrigerators. Six upper-level bedrooms include two lavish primary suites, each with private ensuite, while a 4,129 sq ft lower level offers a guest suite with full kitchen, games lounge, fitness studio with steam, and abundant storage. A triple garage completes the residence. The estate further features a 2,833 sq ft guest house with soaring ceilings, custom spiral staircase, and expansive covered patio; two charming cottages; and a 4,245 sq ft secondary residence—ideal for extended family or rental income. Resort-style amenities include a heated pool, pool house, hot tub, and a tennis court. For the hobbyist or collector, the grounds also provide a 1,300 sq ft workshop, 825 sq ft storage building, and a 5,000+ sq ft barn. Meticulously maintained with recent upgrades including a renewed well, modern water systems, hot water heating, and new roofing, this estate is as practical as it is breathtaking. Steps from the shops, bakeries, and marinas —and surrounded by opportunities for sailing, kayaking, and whale watching—this sanctuary represents the pinnacle of coastal luxury. Notably, this property is situated outside the BC Speculation Tax area. Rarely does a property of this scale and provenance become available: a once-in-a-lifetime offering on Vancouver Island.

How this is calculated
Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.
Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.
Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
