This exceptional Oceanview estate offers 4.99 acres of natural beauty, equestrian infrastructure, and west coast charm just north of the iconic Boat Harbour. Tucked at the end of a quiet no-thru road, this architecturally designed residence promises a peaceful coastal lifestyle, with beach access just a short stroll away. Enjoy kayaking, shoreline walks, and wildlife viewing, home to resident otters, seals, and sea lions, with the occasional orca pod passing by. The land is a blend of open and forested areas, featuring mature fir, cedar, oak, and maple trees, sunny meadows, a seasonal creek, and approx. 2 acres of woodland. A deer-fenced orchard includes fruit trees, herbs, and raised garden beds. The property is fully fenced with electric cross-fencing and includes a 70x100 riding ring, lunging area, and 40x24 custom 3-stall barn with lights, water, heated tack/tool room, and new metal roof. Two additional sheds and a pump house offer ample storage. Inside, the home combines rustic warmth with smart functionality. Wide plank pine floors, wood-sashed thermal windows, a striking stone fireplace, and a sunroom with wood-burning cookstove create a welcoming atmosphere. Ocean-facing patio doors and a west-facing cedar deck offer ideal indoor-outdoor flow. The flexible floor plan includes 4–5 bedrooms with an in-law suite, 3 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 laundry areas, and a spacious mudroom. The suite has its own entrance and private deck but can be seamlessly integrated into the main home. Efficient systems include an electric forced air heat pump, A/C, HRV, and backup electric heat.
