A BOUNTIFUL CLIFF-TOP RETREAT

Designed in 1998 by noted Blue Sky architect Michael McNamara, this original dwelling is backed by forest and looks across Georgia Strait at Vancouver Island's mountains. We have one of Hornby Island's most peaceful yet breathtaking views.

 




 

 

Our home has an arching sod roof, 14-foot ceilings and, below, two intimate 20 X 12' living spaces and one 12' X 10' sleeping loft/study. A newly-built studio serves as the second living space and private bedroom, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a separate entrance. Sliding glass doors open onto a wrap-around deck.

 

 

 

The main living space has a fully-equipped modern galley kitchen and a full bathroom with an oversize tiled shower.
A stair-ladder leads to the loft. Easy-to-use futons in each of the three spaces sleep up to six.









A stereo, DVD, VCR, internet connection and washer/dryer are provided. Allergy-free pillows, linens and towels are supplied.




A barbecue, table and recliners on a 48-foot deck encourage outdoor dining and sunbathing -- with soaring eagles at eye-level and deer browsing in the meadow below.  Idyllic privacy      and peacefulness.


 

We are minutes away from three superb sand beaches, Helliwell Park, hiking trails, tennis courts, excellent markets and community events: festivals, concerts, movies, dances, jazz, art and craft shows, pub, cafés, and restaurants.



 

Note: Not recommended for small children because of adjacent cliff.
