Description
Imagine starting each day with eagles soaring overhead and whales breaching just beyond your window. Set on nearly an acre across from the beach, this Vancouver Island property captures sweeping ocean and coastal mountain views from almost every room, offering the kind of setting that's increasingly hard to find. The main home offers 5 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, and bathrooms on both levels, with two full baths and one half bath upstairs, plus one full bath downstairs. The downstairs space is currently configured for a home daycare, making excellent use of the layout, while the floor plan shows the bedrooms moved back to the front areas with proper egress windows, ensuring the home meets fire safety requirements for legal bedroom use. With main-level entry and a full basement suite, the home offers flexibility for multi-generational living, rental income, or simply extra space to grow into. Spend your evenings on the expansive deck watching orcas and seals drift by, or take a walk along the calm waterfront trail that follows the former rail line just steps from your door. When you're ready to explore further, a beautifully updated ocean-view cottage with its own entrance and parking sits on the property, ideal for Airbnb, rental income, a home business, or extended family living. Outside, you'll find fruit trees, a fenced yard, and plenty of room to garden or simply enjoy the surrounding nature. Much of the work has already been done here, with a newer septic system, heat pump, updated plumbing, and drip irrigation all in place, so you can move in and start enjoying coastal life right away. Just minutes to Union Bay, Courtenay, and Comox Valley Airport, this property offers both peaceful seclusion and everyday convenience. This is more than a home, it's the coastal lifestyle you've been dreaming of. (id:63159)

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.
