LT 10 Maple Bay Rd
Lasqueti Island, British Columbia V0R2J0

Stunning walk-on waterfront property with two cottages. This is the place where memories are created, the relationship strengthened and body and mind are cleansed. Designed in collaboration between artist and architect and built by a skillful local builder, the main home is situated to take full advantage of northwestern views toward Hornby Island, Texada and Desolation Sound. Sheltered from the southeast wind this property is a gem. Not many properties can boast sunrise and sunset in high summer. Two “turn-key” waterfront dwellings offer simplicity, comfort, beauty and tranquillity. The cedar-shingled main house is equipped with a state-of-the-art solar-electric system and a rarely-used Honda 2000 generator for backup power. The ingenious rainwater collection system connects water off the high-quality painted non-toxic metal roof and includes like-new 8,000-litre cistern for the main house and another 2,500-litre tank for the guest cottage. The indoor-plumbing system in the main house includes a 5-gallon pressure pump and built-in water filters for drinking water at the kitchen tap, and a propane on-demand heater for your continuous hot water. There is also a new septic system with an option for a flush toilet built into the design of the main house, used only for gray water now. Post-and-beam utility shed built in 2018 includes a hand-built pizza (cob) oven. Walk along the long shoreline straight from the property in either direction, head out to Boot Point Park or further to Spring Bay for a swim at one of the islanders’ favourite beaches. A grassy path gradually inclines from this mid-bank waterfront property to a pebble beach where you can enjoy swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking or just simply exploring this interesting shoreline. There is a protected moorage for your boat just around the corner, or ''fair-weather'' short mooring in front of the property. Located just 10 minutes drive from the ferry, neighbourhood pub & gov't wharf in False Bay. (5327960)
