Rare two acre unique waterfront with a character home, private dock, orchard, stable, workshop and cottage. Rich in history and brimming with potential, this property offers many opportunities, including subdivision possibilities or simply enjoying the private sanctuary. In the same family for over 50 years, this historic gem captures your heart the moment you arrive. Originally built in 1934 for Esther Tryon,the home is perfectly situated on the lot for views and sunshine! The view along with the local sandstone rock garden and perennial borders, set the stage for the main house.This 1930s period home, designed by renowned architect Hubert Savage features distinctive cedar curved eaves reminiscent of thatched roofs and is perched on a promontory overlooking the bay with south-facing views. From the dock, your waterfront adventures to Tsehum Harbour & the Gulf Islands await. The house is beautifully integrated into the lush landscape, offering a skylit breakfast room, a charming 1930s kitchen, and a living room with sweeping views of the bay. A spacious music room, perfect for social gatherings, opens to a balcony for enjoying evening sun. The primary area includes a deco-style study with custom joinery, a private bathroom, and a cozy built-in day bed, all adjoining the main bedroom with views of the rose garden, personal bathroom, and a private library space. Upstairs, you'll find three sunny, country-style bedrooms and a bathroom centred around a shared living area. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a delightful period home, ready for you to expand your life and pursue your passions. Outbuildings, currently set up as pottery and weaving studios, could easily be converted back to hobby farm use or reimagined to suit your needs. The cottage, a quaint clapperboard house, is perfect for guests, relatives, or caretakers. Nestled among heritage apple, plum, and quince trees, this property invites you to create your own legacy in a truly magical setting. (id:47740)
