Description
An extraordinary 8.5ac oceanview estate on Salt Spring Island where enduring craftsmanship meets refined West Coast luxury. Built as a legacy property, this timber-framed residence—crafted from trees harvested on site—offers soaring ceilings and a sense of quiet strength. The 3BR/4BA layout features a serene primary retreat, heated tile floors, and light-filled spaces capturing sweeping harbour views toward Vancouver with prime sun exposure. This is the realization of a master mechanic’s vision, designed for a self-reliant lifestyle w/ 2 high-bay garages w/ mezzanine, engine hoist, plumbed compressors, a 1400sf wired shop, and 2100sf powered barn. Infrastructure includes a backup generator and dual wells, catering to those who prioritize practicality and long-term stability. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac mins to Ganges w/ future oceanview build potential, this compound is built to a higher standard for a life of comfort and independence.
