Description
Recently appraised at $925,000, this sun-drenched West Coast retreat lets you wake up every morning between Gabriola Island's two most iconic white-sand beaches. Just a few flat steps from Twin Beaches, the 2-bed/2-bath home captures sweeping ocean views through vaulted ceilings and walls of glass that flood the 1,562 sq ft upper level with natural light. Tasteful 2024 upgrades-including an updated kitchen, heat-pump/air-conditioning, newer septic and water systems, wood-stoves, and an expansive new view deck -mean you can move in and start living the island lifestyle today. Downstairs, a fully renovated family room and separate rec room with its own entrance invite visiting friends, teen hang-outs, or rental potential. Need studio, shop, or income space? A bonus 742 sq ft detached building is ready for your home business or art studio. Set on a landscaped, irrigated 0.38-acre lot with ocean glimpses, the property is quiet yet only five minutes to the ferry, moorage, school-bus stop, and all Village amenities. Walk barefoot to sunrise paddles, sunset swims, and miles of shoreline trails, then come home to stargaze from your deck while eagles soar overhead. This is island living without compromise - offered below appraised value. Secure your slice of Gulf Islands paradise before someone else discovers it!
