Cortes Island, Vancouver Island, British Columbia

Magnificent Waterfront Home With Guest Cottage

Located In The Northern Gulf Islands On Canada’s West Coast

Imagine a place where the water is pure and natural. Imagine a place where the air is sweet and clean. It exists, it is CORTES ISLAND. Situated in the northern gulf islands on Canada’s west coast approximately 110 miles up the straits from Vancouver and 200 miles from Seattle. Access is a breeze. Scheduled floatplane service is available from both Seattle and Vancouver and you will be dropped off right at your private dock. If you prefer, you can drive up Vancouver Island and take the ferries to Cortes Island. If you are like most of us and crave peace and tranquility, search no more, for you are home. A sprawling 17.6 acres awaits you with 1,750 feet of pristine oceanfront. It’s like owning your own island, as access is by water, which affords security and the ultimate in privacy. No noisy generator here as electricity is hooked up to the regular power grid via an underwater transmission line. Water is in its most pure and natural state from an underground aquifer 220 feet in depth. Telephone and Internet are on site via an underwater telephone cable and television is provided by satellite. It’s difficult to imagine all the amenities of a city in such a unique location. This place truly has it all.

If you are a boaty, the 100 feet of dock can easily accommodate your 50-60 foot yacht. Don’t worry about the water depth, as this is deep-water moorage, and don’t worry about swirling winds as this location is fully protected.

If you own your own floatplane there is a unique ramping system to get her out of the salt water and hose her off with all the peace of mind which goes with having her high and dry. As a boat owner, why waste time and fuel to get to the scenic and interesting parts as Cortes Island is the gateway to Desolation Sound, Toba Inlet Bute Inlet and hundreds of other fascinating hide-a-ways. Let Cortes be your starting point.

The magnificent principle residence has been located, engineered and laid out with precision taking every possible advantage of the ocean view and lay of the land. From practically every room windows have been set ever so low to permit even the slightest gaze towards the sea to be rewarded. You don’t have to be a composer or an author to enjoy the peace and tranquility which is afforded here, but just in case, try out the gleaming white grand piano which awaits your fingers gentle caress. This magnificent instrument was created in 1919 in Baltimore, Md. and was found in 1994, re-finished and helicoptered to it’s current home. It was chosen for its unequaled and perfect sound. If you are a writer, the quiet teasing sound of the waves gently caressing the water worn rocks below will inspire unlimited and yet to be created masterpieces.

This home was constructed in 1992 and consists of 3,000 square feet of grand living area and is highlighted with an imposing two-story glass atrium eating area, which easily accommodates eight to ten for dinner. The view from this area is a stunning 210-degree view of the ever-changing waterscape. There are three bedrooms with the large master suite facing directly to the water on two sides. The ensuite bath has a jetted tub for two and also provides a magnificent ocean view. If more formal dining is preferred, a separate dining room is situated towards the rear of the home creating a completely different aura with views of the natural forest shrubs and ferns. Flooring is natural hardwood in the kitchen, grand entry and eating area with plush white carpeting throughout the remainder. The kitchen is a gourmet’s dream with numerous built-ins as well as an island containing the Jennaire cook top.

For your outdoor pleasure there is a 3,000 square foot sundeck, which wraps around three sides of the home. There are numerous ideal spots for the patio furniture and just plain lounging. If you dare, the sundeck railing has a gate, which is used for diving directly into the ocean. Indeed, the sitting of this magnificent structure is truly WATERFRONT.

Just a stone throw away, but very private is the two-bedroom cozy and fully self-contained guest cottage with its own sundeck over the water. The two homes are conjoined by a boardwalk, which starts at the top of the dock ramp and leads some 250 feet up to what was the original homestead on the property. The original home, which still exists, was built in 1910 and the surrounding grounds are modeled after the typical English country garden with oodles of stone terraces and stairs. Much of this area waits to be reclaimed to its original 1910 ambiance. It has been written all too often that “You must see it to believe it” but this one of a kind “Sleeping Beauty” will cast its own spell on you that promises to last a lifetime.
