About This Property

Welcome to your private 2.2-acre country retreat on a quiet no-through road just moments from the ocean. Surrounded by forest, this exceptional property features a fully rebuilt rancher (taken down to the studs in 2015), paired an insulated 3-bay garage as well as a flexible studio space. The heart of the home is the beautifully renovated 2024 kitchen & it showcases a dramatic 13’ island with eating bar, full fridge and full freezer, beer & wine cooler, gas Wolf range with French doors opening directly onto the deck. The inviting living room features a Morso woodstove framed by expansive windows that draw the forest views inside. The main level is completed with a family room, primary with ensuite, two additional bedrooms & full main bath. Outdoor living is truly resort-inspired. A large deck flows seamlessly to a 4-season outdoor gazebo with a $35,000 outdoor kitchen fully plumbed with gas, retractable poly siding for wind protection, two overhead Twin Eagles heaters, outdoor speakers, and a fire bowl—creating a fully equipped year-round entertaining space. The hot tub sits beneath a custom pergola and is complemented by an outdoor shower. Plenty of room for the toys with a detached, insulated 3-bay garage that offers 220 power and separate metering, ideal for the hobbyist in the family. There is also a studio space with a loft that is fully equipped with heat pump, and 4-piece bathroom—ideal for guests, workspace, or creative use. Additional structures include an over height, timber frame RV shelter and a woodshed with capacity for approximately 3 cords of firewood, adding practicality to this thoughtfully developed acreage. Ample water with the drilled well in 2021 that yields an incredible 44gal/minute. Located in the sought-after seaside community of Fanny Bay, you're just 25 minutes to Courtenay or Qualicum Beach in either direction. Deep Bay Marina is only 10 minutes away. A rare opportunity to enjoy refined rural living in a peaceful coastal setting.
