Description

Perched above it all, this sun-drenched penthouse residence offers impressive ocean and Schooner Cove Marina views visible from both inside the unit and its expansive rooftop patio and front-facing deck. A rare offering in this sought-after steel-and-concrete building, the home boasts 2 bedrooms plus den, 2 bathrooms, and over a 1000 sq ft of private outdoor space designed for elevated coastal living. Inside, a white designer kitchen with quartz countertops, tile backsplash, and a large island anchors the open-concept living and dining area, which features floor-to-ceiling windows, gas fireplace, and soft, neutral finishes throughout. Off the kitchen, access opens directly to the expansive rooftop patio—a generously sized, private outdoor oasis exclusive to this penthouse unit. Both bedrooms enjoy floor-to-ceiling windows and offer direct access to the front-facing deck, capturing stunning ocean and marina views. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet with built-in organizer and a spa-like 4-piece ensuite. A true retreat in the heart of Fairwinds, you’re just steps from pristine beaches, scenic walking trails, and the vibrant marina, with world-class golf and a wellness centre minutes away. Dine seaside at the Nanoose Bay Café or enjoy a morning coffee by the harbour—all part of a lifestyle that blends natural beauty with refined comfort. This is more than a home—it’s a rare chance to own one of Vancouver Island’s most impressive penthouse residences. (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.
