Description
A rare waterfront sanctuary on exclusive Protection Island, this beautifully renovated oceanfront estate embodies the essence of refined West Coast living. Privately nestled on a manicured 1/3-acre property framed by majestic Garry Oaks and 80’ of shoreline, the residence enjoys spectacular sunsets over Nanaimo Harbour, Mt. Benson, and the shimmering city skyline. Designed as an elegant coastal escape, the 3-bedroom plus den, 3-bath home showcases soaring ceilings, exposed log beams, rich wood flooring, and expansive windows that flood the interiors with natural light. The gourmet chef’s kitchen is appointed with premium appliances, solid surface countertops, and seamless flow into sophisticated living and entertaining spaces anchored by a stunning stone fireplace. Expansive oceanfront decks and an 80’ concrete private deep-water dock with power and water complete this exceptional yachting retreat, moments from Nanaimo and only 20 minutes to Vancouver by seaplane.
