This beautiful 3 bed + office (or 4 bedroom), 3 bath family home situated on over an acre of land in Cedar by the Sea is as practical as it is comfortable. Inside, vaulted ceilings and large windows fill the main floor with natural light. The kitchen features quartz countertops and updated appliances, opening into a bright living space. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, a cozy backup to the efficient heat pump. The main-floor office has French doors and its own little deck, ideal for working from home. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet, ensuite with freestanding soaker tub, and a large sun deck. The basement provides a play area for kids and generous storage. A grid-tied solar panel system with net metering generates credits on BC Hydro bills through the summer months. Combined with the heat pump and a new water heater, energy costs stay low for a home this size. A durable metal roof rounds out the package. Outside, mature trees dot the expansive fully fenced yard, and the deer-proof garden holds fruitful apple, pear, and cherry trees, berry bushes, and a greenhouse. Kids will love the play structure with swinging bridge, slide, and swings. This impressive property also features ample parking, municipal water, and a private and serene location with the Cable Bay Trail and beach, and the public boat launch within walking distance. The Duke Point ferry terminal is just minutes away for easy access to the mainland. (id:62865)
