Spectacular walk-on beachfront oasis in the heart of Cordova Bay, just 20 minutes from downtown Victoria and 15 minutes from the airport. This rare offering includes a beautifully renovated main residence and a detached multi-unit carriage house, combining timeless West Coast charm with modern luxury and strong rental potential. The main home has been completely reimagined with new in-floor heating, custom flooring, a fully open-concept layout, and sophisticated coastal design. A chef’s dream kitchen features custom cabinetry, double dishwashers and fridges, a farmhouse sink, and a La Cornue oven from France. Elegant French doors open to a private upper deck with a hot tub, perfect for relaxing under the stars. The living area is anchored by a Rumford wood-burning fireplace and opens through storm-proof French doors directly to the beach. Each of the three bathrooms has been fully renovated with upscale fixtures and spa-like finishes. Outside, the property is lushly landscaped with wisteria-draped gables, hydrangeas, and rhododendrons. Artificial turf and custom walkways make maintenance a breeze, while direct beach access invites paddleboarding, kayaking, and sunset strolls. The detached carriage house includes two stylish, self-contained and furnished suites—one 2-bedroom with in-suite laundry, and one 1-bedroom—perfect for guests or generating $70,000–$90,000/year in rental income.
This exceptional property offers a lifestyle of beauty, flexibility, and understated elegance. Featured in the 2023 Hollywood film Making Waves, it is truly one of Vancouver Island’s most iconic beachfront retreats.
