Please note this proerty has sold since this blog was posted. Updated 12/28/10.

This month we are featuring a beautifully renovated classic oceanfront  home which was previously listed for over 1 million dollars and has now dropped to just $699, 000. This elegant and luxurious home is situated on 2.26 glently sloping acres (with a bonus 200ft of oceanfront!) and faces Baynes sound and the Beaufort mountains. In my opinion, this exposure is the nicest on the island as it offers afternoon sun and great sunsets as you look over the ocean.

This home is now in foreclosure and I believe it represents a great value for the high level of finishing, amount of waterfront and land that it offers.  Definitely worth a look! Click here for details.

One more house I just have to mention...As I was looking up the info to write this blog, I came across another great value on Denman. It does have an offer pending, but is worth a look at only $529, 000. It is oceanfront as well!

For more information on either of these properties, please click here to contact James Warner of RE/MAX The Islands.

A Picturesque Piece of History on a Sensational Seaside

This month, we highlight a unique property on Pender Island as our "Pick of the Month." This charming oceanfront character home (circa 1921) with perfectly preserved original wood floors & wainscoting sits on an idyllic .80 acre lot which gently slopes to a sandy beach and your very own .47 acre island (accessible by foot at low tide).

The home is approx. 1600 sqft with steps to an open attic w/dormers; an ideal place for extra Bedrooms. The roof was redone about 10 yrs ago, so the home is sound & dry; waiting for a buyer that appreciates long ago charm.

The property has just been reduced $100, 000 giving you a chance to get in this unique property in a coveted location with fantastic sunsets for substantially less. Truly Remarkable!

Our "Pick of the Month"  for February is a Thetis Island getaway. Sought after features of this property include 1.7 acres of private, walk-on waterfront with swimming steps from your deck, a well-appointed home, a protected bay to moor your boat and fabulous westernexposure to enjoy those late summer sunsets.

According to listing agents, Joe Squire, the home is the complete package with all of the features waterfront buyers are looking for. "In my opinion  this is the perfect island getaway....sought by everyone and rarely found. With such limited supply where all the wish list boxes are checked, this is the home that gets passed down generation to generation as they're too rare to sell."

The home features easy accommodation for up to 8 people, 1.5 baths and a bright open kitchen that captures the morning sun on one side and sunsets on the other. Sleek quartz counters provide a generous amount of usable space with custom cabinets for functional storage. With sweeping ocean views and vaulted ceilings in the living area, this home exudes warmth & charm. You'll notice the radiant heat in the newly renovated bathroom, bright with a soaker tub and separate shower. Irrigation in the gardens, a workshop for the handyman, too much to list! Meticulously cared for and on the market for the first time in decades.
