Description
Experience the pinnacle of Vancouver Island living in this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom custom masterpiece, perfectly positioned at the end of a quiet road on a massive 0.28 acre of oceanfront lot. Designed by the renowned Brian Childs and built to the highest standards with 2x6 & plywood construction, this estate offers a rare blend of architectural brilliance and rugged durability. The home captures breathtaking 180-degree Pacific views through its signature ''Prow'' design, creating an exhilarating, immersive ''at-sea'' experience as if you are standing on the bow of a luxury vessel. No detail has been spared in maintaining this property, featuring recent updates including a professional 30-year roof replacement and the installation of high-end engineered hardwood flooring throughout for modern elegance and lasting quality. The interior reflects organic luxury with edge-grain fir cabinetry adorned with unique stone hardware, and two majestic fireplaces hand-built with Englishman River rock that anchor the living spaces. The main level is designed for both grand entertaining and practical life, featuring open-concept living and dining areas, a chef’s kitchen, a guest bedrm, full bath, and a laundry rm with direct access to the double garage. Upstairs, the Master Suite is positioned like a first-class cabin on board, boasting a private seaside balcony for morning coffee above the waves, plus two additional bedrooms with stunning vistas of the ocean or the garden. The walk-out lower level offers a private studio with a kitchenette and full bath—ideal as a mortgage helper or guest suite. Outside, follow your private stairs down to the shore in the island’s warmest waters to swim, fish, or launch your kayak. Approved Mooring Bouy could be installed for your boats. The property also features a fully-fenced garden with mature privacy hedges, towering trees, and a large gate for secure parking of your ''big toys.'' More than a home, it is a legacy built to endure. Your dream awaits. (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.

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.
