Welcome to this private, sunny 5-acre estate located just steps from Englishman River Falls, offering the perfect blend of comfort, income potential, and outdoor adventure. This unique property features two fully renovated homes, a serviced RV pad, a detached workshop, and extensive upgrades throughout—making it a truly rare Vancouver Island opportunity. The main residence is a beautifully updated 1,755 sq ft, 3-bedroom, one-level rancher. The open layout is warm and inviting, highlighted by a cozy wood stove and modern finishes throughout. A stunning partially covered patio overlooks the pool and gardens, creating an ideal space for year-round entertaining and relaxation. The second home offers 1,431 sq ft of renovated living space, with 4 bedrooms, a private yard, and its own driveway. Perfect for extended family, a guest house, or long-term rental, it also serves as an excellent mortgage helper. A private RV pad with hydro, power, and a 500-gallon septic tank provides yet another revenue opportunity or space for visiting friends and family. The property is thoughtfully designed with two separate driveways for privacy, plus a lovely pond, mature fruit trees, palm trees, and large sunny lawns with plenty of room for kids and pets. Practical upgrades include a new electrical system with 485 amps of power, new heating systems, app-controlled heating in the main living room, and modernized interiors throughout. A large spacious detached workshop adds flexibility for hobbies, storage, or studio use. This estate offers the best of both worlds—just a 5-minute walk to waterfalls, hiking, and mountain biking trails, yet only a 10-minute drive to shopping and amenities. Whether you’re seeking a family retreat, an investment property with multiple income streams, or a private oasis surrounded by nature, this home delivers. (id:45055)
