Magical Oceanfront Green Cottage on Cowichan Bay

Description

Nestled right on the water, at the mystical foot of Mount Tzouhalem/Pi Pa'am, on Cowichan Bay, this extraordinary location boasts a cozy furnished cottage which might be ideal for individuals relocating to Vancouver Island or the Cowichan Valley. Meditate and commune with the swans, otters, salmon, heron, sea lions and the occasional whale or porpoise. This magical space is a fully feng shui-ed, several decades year old (very healthy, full environmental done to ensure no mold, mildew or toxic impact) rustic 2 room Cottage set right on the bedrock above the beach on pristine Cowichan Bay. The beach boasts smooth pebbles and borders the mineral-rich "mud flats" that used to be the traditional clam beds of the First Nations Peoples of the area. The Cottage boasts cozy electric heating, 2 rooms and a shower in the 2nd room (privacy obtained through a screen). The main room has a large Simmons Beauty Rest King sized bed, and the 2nd room, a high quality Simmons Pillow Top Beauty Rest Queen and a shower/private bathroom. The King bed is in the large front room which also has a sitting and dining area. Amenities are basic, yet complete: An electric Stove/Oven. There is microwave, a French Press, a Cuisinart Coffee Maker and a Tea Kettle. Fully furnished with all necessities. The bathroom is small with a toilet, sink and cabinet. The shower is outside the bathroom in an unusual format -- however, there is a screen for privacy. The Land is run on a state of the art septic system (put in brand new for all buildings in 2019) and there is only fresh, clean Vancouver Island Ocean air to be breathed in by all. Nestled at the foot of a Great Firs, you can enjoy walking in the neighborhood, drive a short way to the trail heads for hikes and have a meditative rests on the beach. You can use the Cottage as a writer's haven, a work-from-home space or a vacation spot to tour one of the many local Cowichan vineyards, restaurants and eateries, and guests are very happy to bring back their wares and eat in the beauty of the beach and the surrounding areas. It is important to note that the Cottage is also located beside internationally-known "Green Point Project" which is now complete. (www.greenpointproject.org). This project aspires to be the healthiest, most sustainable residential dwelling in the world with Passive House, Living Building Challenge and Green Shores certifications. On the far side of the property is the Prodigy Movement NeuroMovement® studio which is in use on a part time basis and also hosts a small art gallery, on occasion, of local artists. The owners do live on site, and the buildings are used for owner use and also, occasionally, for short term rental to guests with verified reviews who apply to stay. This is strictly non smoking/vaping Land. This Land is deeply ecologically sensitive and is 6.25 acres of endangered Garry Oak woodland that is under revitalization. While we use fire ecologically and modestly in the fall, risk of fire is high in the summer. No guest fire of any kind is permitted on this Land, thank you. Guests are able to access the area all around the Cottage, the full beach and the surrounding forests. We so look forward to welcoming you! Please reach out if you have any further questions.
