About this home

A Rare Waterfront Sanctuary on Thetis Island! Discover a remarkable 2.57 acre private sanctuary with over 300 feet of oceanfront on Thetis island's sought after west side. Surrounded by mature landscapes, expansive water views and spectacular sunsets, this property offers privacy, beauty and the freedom to disconnect, while remaining minutes from the ferry and float plane dock. At its heart is a beautifully renovated 1,500 sqft custom built cottage featuring one bedroom, 2 bathrooms, a guest house and workshop. Handcrafted millwork and thoughtful finishes create a warm, timeless atmosphere. A newly built shop/garage provides ample space for boats, vehicles, equipment and storage. A reliable water well, UV ion purification, and professionally installed septic system provide peace of mind for comfortable year round living. Kayak, paddleboard, boat, explore - or simply relax. With daily float plane service, water taxi access from Vancouver, and two nearby marinas, Island life is remarkably accessible. Some properties purchased. Others become part of your story. This is one of those places. ''Foreshore rights are a possibility to build a dock with a successful application being granted'' (id:63626)
