1535 Baikie Rd, Denman Island, British Columbia

About This Property

There’s a particular stretch of Denman where the community feels most like itself — neighbours who know each other, people who care deeply for the land, a pace that suits people who chose island life deliberately. Baikie Road sits squarely in that part of the island. Well-built, well-maintained homes are harder to find on Denman than people expect, and this Cape Cod on a half-acre is both. What makes the location stand out further is proximity: Fillongley Provincial Park, all 64 acres of it, is a short walk away, and so is one of the island’s best swimming beaches — both become part of the daily rhythm when you live this close. For people drawn to community as much as landscape, this part of Denman tends to feel exactly right. The house itself is 1,900 sq ft on the main and upper floor— well-proportioned, with a covered porch across the front that sees genuine use in every season. Morning coffees, rainy afternoons, the long light of summer evenings — the porch earns its keep. Inside, the layout is practical and comfortable: the kind of home that has been carefully maintained rather than continuously renovated. Below, a 940 sq ft finished basement with 6’3” ceilings expands the options considerably: guest quarters, a studio, a dedicated home office, or simply room for the tools and projects that enhance island life. The infrastructure is solid throughout. The property has its own well and septic system, an attached garage, a detached workshop, and backup generator wiring in place — a practical setup that matters more than it sounds once you live here year-round. Well-insulated and genuinely move-in ready: a house you can settle into without a list of projects waiting. An additional fully serviced half-acre lot with RV parking is available next door, under separate purchase. For buyers thinking about extended family access, a dedicated guest setup, or the long-term value of keeping room to grow on Denman, worth considering alongside this one.
