Description
Introducing the iconic Book Lovers House—one of Sidney Island’s most exceptional waterfront residences and incredible value for a home of this architectural calibre. Designed by Blue Sky Architecture, this 2,300sf custom home sits on a sun-drenched 1.2-acre point with panoramic exposure and all-day light. Inspired by the shoreline and solar orientation, the home & gardens form an elegant oval plan around a sheltered, sun-filled courtyard. The single-level residence offers 3 beds + den, 2 baths, plus flexible guest, studio and storage spaces. Mature forest provides exceptional privacy, with solar power, well, new generator and beach access. Island amenities include private marina, airstrip, sandy beaches & walking trails, surrounded by expansive common lands roughly the combined size of Stanley Park and Central Park—shared by just 111 owners. The neighbouring 1.08-acre lot with well and septic is also available, offering an excellent opportunity to acquire the full 2.28-acre estate.
