Assessed at $957,000., this executive south-facing oceanfront home is priced to sell at $937, 500.

This is an executive, modern, spacious, and easily maintained oceanfront home in the extraordinarily beautiful southern Gulf Island in British Columbia.  Imagine sitting on the main floor balcony and watching the orcas swim by, the sail boats racing or simply enjoying a day on the water, or a mixture of marine traffic and ferries navigating their way in Swanson Channel.  Consider this beautiful 3,500+ square foot home, which has a panoramic ocean view due south towards Swartz Bay as your next destination residence.

Mayne Island has full ferry service with the British Columbia Ferry Corporation into Village Bay and float plane service with Seair Seaplanes into Miner’s Bay.  Nothing could be easier.

A part of the Village Point Community, on Crane Point, one has a choice of enjoying neighbourhood activities or the serenity which can be appreciated with the oceanfront privacy of this beautiful home.  Private boat docks accompany homes to the east of this property.  One can always apply for their own private dock.

Mayne Island is a vibrant community with artists’ studios, galleries, and other everyday convenient amenities.  The climate is temperate, and visitors vacation on the Island, enjoying the many beaches, ocean kayaking, forest trails and community events and activities.  For a golf game, take a short ferry ride to Pender Island, Galiano Island, or Vancouver Island, (Swartz Bay), and enjoy many public and private golfing facilities.
