Waterfront West Coast Retreat on DeCourcy Island
This 1.4-acre, low-bank, south-facing property is nestled in a protected bay on DeCourcy Island, BC. The West Coast modern home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a design that blends clean architectural lines with rustic charm. A sunken dining area and built-in seating are bathed in natural light, thanks to extensive glasswork. The spacious living room features a stone fireplace and modern wood stove, creating a cozy atmosphere. The open kitchen combines vintage and contemporary appliances with ocean views and ample storage and an antique wood burning stove in addition to a modern propane cook top. The primary bedroom offers breathtaking vistas, a wood-burning fireplace, and a stylish ensuite and French doors opening to a private deck. Multi-level outdoor patios lead directly to excellent swimming and kayaking.
This off-grid retreat is fully equipped with modern systems, including a 2000-watt inverter, solar panels, lithium-ion batteries, backup generator (Honda 5000 watts), and two Bosch on-demand hot water heaters. A separate workshop, two outbuildings, and all furnishings are included—plus a 20’ Ironwood boat with 150 Yamaha motor and AWD SUV—making it fully turnkey.
DeCourcy Island spans approx. 460 acres and lies between Gabriola, Valdes, and Vancouver Islands. Access is typically by private boat or scheduled floatplane from YVR. Home to Pirates Cove Marine Park and Russell’s Landing private marina, DeCourcy offers protected moorage and stunning natural beauty. Residents enjoy a strong community with events like an annual sailing regatta, Pancake breakfast, Thanksgiving lamb roast, concerts, and more—plus a volunteer fire department. A peaceful getaway with the option to connect.
