Description

TWO HOMES. 3.6 ACRES. OCEAN VIEWS. ONE EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITY. Welcome to this remarkable oceanside estate overlooking Baynes Sound and Denman Island. Set on 3.6 gently sloping, park-like acres, this unique property offers two separate homes, incredible flexibility & a West Coast lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find. The Cape Cod-inspired main residence offers generous living spaces filled with natural light, a welcoming kitchen w/ solid maple cabinetry, river rock fireplace, hardwood floors, expansive decks & room for family and guests. The second residence provides additional bedrooms, ocean views & its own outdoor living spaces—ideal for extended family, independent living, guests or income potential. Outside is where this property becomes truly special. Mature cedar, fir & maple trees frame beautifully established grounds with gardens, fruit trees, a seasonal creek and approximately 250 feet of high-bank ocean-view frontage. Enjoy sweeping views across Baynes Sound toward Denman & Tree Islands while eagles soar overhead & marine life passes below. Two separate entrances enhance privacy and flexibility, while a detached powered garage/workshop, boathouse, firepits, pool, treehouse, & expansive green space create endless possibilities for recreation, hobbies & family life. CR1 zoning, regional water connection, separate septic systems & excellent access complete the package. You're minutes from boat launches, the Buckley Bay ferry to Denman and Hornby Islands & the Inland Island Highway, with Courtenay approximately 15 minutes away. This isn't simply a home—it's an opportunity to create the Vancouver Island lifestyle you've been looking for. (id:63159)
