Description
West Coast contemporary architecture meets the serenity of island living at this exceptional custom-built Protection Island home. Architecturally designed and completed in 2018, this striking four-bedroom residence is wrapped in corrugated steel with warm cedar accents and exposed engineered timber beams. Elevated on a concrete utility core with a dramatic cantilevered design, the home offers exceptional storage below while creating light-filled living spaces that appear to float among the surrounding evergreens. Set on a beautifully treed lot, the property offers remarkable privacy and a seamless connection to nature. Expansive decks, a spectacular rooftop terrace, and thoughtfully designed outdoor living spaces blur the line between indoors and out, creating a home that feels like a year-round retreat. Whether enjoying your morning coffee beneath the trees or entertaining friends under the stars, every space has been designed to celebrate the West Coast lifestyle. Inside, warm natural wood, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and an open-concept layout fill the home with light. The custom kitchen is the heart of the home featuring a stunning live-edge island, quartz countertops, open shelving, stainless steel appliances and generous workspace for cooking and entertaining. The adjoining living room offers a cozy wood stove, a new heat pump for year-round comfort and French doors opening onto a private deck overlooking the forest. Four spacious bedrooms provide flexibility for families, guests, or a home office. Just a five-minute walk to Smugglers Beach, you'll enjoy easy access to swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, and some of the island's most beautiful shoreline. Protection Island offers a unique combination of peaceful island living and modern convenience. As part of the City of Nanaimo, the island is serviced with municipal water, a hybrid wastewater system, fire protection, ambulance service, and a vibrant community known for its beaches, walking trails.

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.
