Architectural Masterpiece with Magnificent Views!
Guaranteed you won’t find anything quite like this unique West Coast treasure boasting 2922 sqft 3 Bed/4 Bath Contemporary Home, nestled on a .40- acre naturally landscaped lot adorned with lush flora, ferns, and moss-covered outcroppings that epitomize the beauty of mid-eastern Vancouver Island. Specially designed by Michael McNamara’s laser computer system to fit into the natural topography and built by Blue Sky Design on Hornby Island, this one-of-a-kind residence boasts a captivating blend of modern styling and organic accents of wood and stone, with a touch of Zen woven into the presentation. You'll enjoy one-level living complemented by a fully finished ground level, private outdoor living spaces, a pond with fountains, a charming Garden Tea House, and postcard-perfect views stretching beyond the Yeo and Winchelsea Island groups, and across the Strait of Georgia to the distant mainland mountains. There's also a fabulous Double Bay Garage/Workshop and extra parking space. Situated in Oceanside’s most prestigious neighborhood, Fairwinds Golf & Resort Community, you are only minutes away from a golf course, walking trails, a waterfront village with a marina, and numerous parks and beach access points. It's also a quick 20-minute drive to Parksville and North Nanaimo for shopping and amenities. From the spacious parking area, a staircase of wood and glass guides you to a wooden entry door. Stepping inside, you'll find a larger-than-life floor plan hosting a myriad of expansive living spaces and cozy intimate places. From the foyer with its burnished concrete flooring and peeled log posts, a floating staircase elegantly ascends to the main level of the home. Here, you'll find an inviting Living Room featuring slate flooring, an over-height cathedral ceiling with exposed beams, and a wall of glass with a sliding door to a covered patio embraced by natural landscaping. A delightful Tea House nearby adds to the peaceful karma of the setting. Also off the Living Room is a second sliding glass door to a private grotto courtyard patio with a hot tub, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings. The stunning open-concept Kitchen/Dining Room boasts wood flooring, a panoramic bay of large windows framing lovely views, and a soaring log beam that branches up to an overheight gazebo- style cedar ceiling. The Kitchen offers ample cabinetry and counter space, a dumbwaiter for easy unloading of supplies, a generous walk-in pantry, a built-in wall oven and microwave, a big island with a breakfast bar, and a window above the sink, ensuring that the family cook can enjoy stunning views while preparing meals. A glass door opens to a wrap-around patio with picturesque views extending beyond the Ballenas Island Lighthouse and the Winchelsea Island Group, and traversing the Strait of Georgia all the way to Sechelt, Halfmoon Bay, and the snow-capped mainland mountains beyond. Enjoy a vibrant sunrise with your morning coffee as gulls and eagles soar overhead, relax in the afternoon while watching boats come and go from the marina, and occasionally spot a cruise ship in the distance. End your day with a sunset dinner while savoring the brilliant pastel colors of the setting sun. A hallway leads to a 2-pc Powder Room featuring a live-edge floating vanity with a vessel sink, followed by the bright and spacious Primary Bedroom Suite boasting a skylighted cathedral ceiling, sliding doors that open to a large closet with laundry facilities, and French doors that lead to a huge patio with fabulous views, embraced by natural plantings and towering evergreens. The stylish 3-pc ensuite features a contemporary metal and stone vanity with an octagonal vessel sink, a large steam shower, and a sliding glass door to the grotto courtyard patio, where you can indulge in relaxing hydrotherapy in the hot tub, either in the morning or before heading off to bed. The ground-level foyer has an octagonal window that is shared with a Guest Suite, which boasts a panorama of vertical windows and French doors that open to a patio with serene ocean views. There, you'll find a charming pond with fountains, plus ferns, natural plantings, and ivy cascading off a natural rock wall—an ideal spot for meditation and relaxation. The Guest Suite also includes its own 4-pc ensuite with a circular soaker tub, an open shower, and a wooden vanity with a vessel sink. Also off the foyer is a versatile Craft/Hobby/Sewing Room with built-in cupboards and a desk, as well as doors to the Mechanical Room and a Wine Cellar with a sink, cupboards, wine racks, and a clever design that incorporates natural rock elements for a classy feel. The ground level is completed by a sizable Rec Room with a wood-burning fireplace, a corner wet bar with a keg fridge, a carved wooden door that opens to a 2-pc Powder Room, and French doors to a Third Bedroom/Den with a built-in Murphy bed and storage. Among the extra features, you'll find stylish Japanese Shoji window coverings, radiant heated flooring, an HRV system, UV protection on all back windows, specially designed and custom-cut post and beams by 'Island Timber Frame,' and a recently replaced heat pump, boiler, and hot water tank. There are dual electrical panels in the Mechanical Room, and the 754 sqft deep Double Garage/Workshop has its own separate panel, three exhaust vents, and a heavy-duty sawdust vacuum. The original ground-level washer/dryer hookups are in place if you'd like to add laundry facilities. The amazing location offers opportunities for golfing, boating, kayaking, and exploring pristine nature trails and uncrowded local beaches.
