This dynamic 10 acre property features huge moss covered rock bluffs and plateaus, high open spaces with valley and mountain views, dense mixed forest with cedar, fir, pine and many arbutus trees, trails making the majority property accessible, a huge old growth Douglas Fir tree, spring fed ponds with a seasonal creek and mature crown land forests along the northern boundary. The property is located at the base of Green Mountain and there are great hiking opportunities in this area.

In keeping with the special property the improvements are very unique and incorporate a wide mix of natural materials including drift wood, rocks and big slabs of wood giving the structures a grounded organic feel. The main cabin is compact but well laid out and offers a compact galley kitchen with big sky lights which create an open bright space. There is a sunken living room with feature windows including custom round stained glass inset, cozy wood stove and rock hearth. The bathroom features a large old claw foot soaker tub and pedestal sink. There is a den adjacent to the bathroom. Upstairs are the bedrooms and a 12 x 12 covered area that could easily be closed in to create more year round living space. The cabin is serviced with power and phone and water supply is a gravity feed system with cisterns fed from a seasonal spring fed pond at the top of the property. The cabin is designed to integrate with the beautiful, rugged outdoor surroundings.

At the top of the property there is a touch the sky view of the surrounding valley and Vancouver Island mountains. This is also the location of the ‘round house’. This unique studio features stack wall construction with painted stucco exterior, many strategically placed windows to capture the views, a tepee style skylight roof peak, loft area and build in counters plus a wood stove with rock work surrounding it. Outside the round house is surrounded by open spaces, exposed granite rock, moss meadows on rock and a young forest in back leading to a mature forest adjacent to the property.
