Looking for an oasis of calm, in a location that offers an enticing year round lifestyle, plus easy access to major centres, and yet with an alluring "yesteryear" ambiance? Here it is, on Salt Spring Island, on almost 7 acres, with arable land (an amazing deer-fenced organic garden is in place, with orchard (yes, those are peach trees!), plus a custom designed and built unique "west coast contemporary" home, with ocean, islands, mountain vistas, and sunrises and sunsets! Old growth timbers in the exposed beams, vaulted ceiling, dramatic living (feature stone fireplace), library/den off, terrific cook's dream kitchen, with ocean view dining, plus dramatic solarium/ breakfast area, master sitting with ensuite in its own wing, guest accomodation, full bath, in its separate wing (great loft for children or grandchildren to enjoy!), plus separate laundry and powder room...all on main level. Lower (garden) level offers games room, full bath, spacious storage, wine room, great workshop. Expansive decking, with ocean vistas, hot tub with a view, plus sunset patios. Garden walkway leads to a gazebo with firepit...watch the moon rise and shimmer across the water, dancing towards you.... Very private, and yet close to all amenities, and just a short stroll to a lovely beach (can keep a boat on a mooring buoy, in the protected bay). Enjoy tranquility!
