Description

A rare waterfront offering in the heart of Sidney tucked within the peaceful surroundings of Roberts Bay. Here the rhythm of the tides, the call of shorebirds and ever-changing coastal views create a setting that feels deeply special. Just a short stroll to Beacon Avenue, you’re moments from Sidney’s beloved shops, cafés and seaside charm. This beautifully maintained 4,800+ sqft oceanfront home is grand in scale yet warm and welcoming in all the right ways. It’s a home designed not just to impress, but to be lived in where gatherings feel effortless and everyday moments feel a little more meaningful. Expansive NW-facing views capture stunning sunsets, best enjoyed from the home's waterfront patios or your very own private pier, an incredibly rare feature, perfect for kayaking, fishing or simply sitting above the water and taking it all in. Set on a large lot, the home offers over 2,300 sqft of sun-soaked patio space, seamlessly extending the living area outdoors. Whether hosting friends, enjoying a quiet morning coffee or unwinding in the hot tub, this is a home that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Inside, you’ll find a thoughtful, family-friendly layout with hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, expansive windows and doors that open to the waterfront. The main floor primary bedroom offers comfort and convenience with a walk-in closet and private ensuite with steam shower, your own peaceful retreat. 3 generous sized bedrooms upstairs including in-law accommodation above the garage provides flexibility for guests or extended family. Downstairs, a generous recreation room, workshop, and over 2,000 sqft of storage space ensure there’s room for everything from hobbies to seasonal gear. This is a home that adapts beautifully to every stage of life and those looking to embrace an active coastal lifestyle. A truly special property in an irreplaceable setting offering space, warmth and a connection to the ocean that is simply hard to find. (id:63159)

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.
