all i can think about is how much of a pain it would be every time there’s high tide… you’re basically stranded on that island at that point!! i’m good, i don’t trust that little “road” leading onto the island 😂
My Great-Aunt Yvonne had a cabin in that area until she passed in the mid-90s and her daughter sold it, it's not there anymore, long since torn down for newer homes. We had to stay there for the summer of 1983 when we moved out of our old house but the new house was still being renovated and we had no place to live for two months. I took kayak lessons around Seymour Bay, we went to Alder Cove, Fairweather Bay, one time we went all the way around to Snug Cove and back, it's a long trip by kayak but the scenery and wildlife is worth it. Don't try to pet the sea otters and sea lions, they look cute but they can bite, and it's illegal.
Toothpicks to a tornado - can't happen there. Fires from earthquakes and cuts from glass and wood could wipe out the cities you'd move to. Please come to Boston... ... ...
This is a beautiful property. It almost has the feel of a short term guest rental where it would be nice to stay for a week get away, very nice indeed :-) $300 a night maybe
Very nice, but it looks like it'll take a boatload of cash to to bring to it's best self. Kitchen is small and we didn't get to see the bathrooms. Not to worry though, there's always someone with deep enough pockets to take this on... and probably tear it down, clear the lot, and build their dream home.
Why would you want to go anyway quickly? The view is stunning and to wake up to that would be relaxing and comforting! There's too much hustle and bustling going on for people not "smelling the flowers" and end up dead because of their fast paced life! I live in a city and it's too much but I've been here all my life and I'm loyal but it gets crazy!
if I had money to buy it - I would buy something else outside of Bowen Island and outside of Canada and would had better climate, better quality of construction and much closer to everything else for much less money, lol. I have been on Bowen three time (just live really close), had good times, but no way I go there again - boring as hell and living there is super inconvenient. And those wood frame houses.... terrible crap.... just look at those low ceilings in this several million dollar mansion.
Watched videos like "family wraps home in greenhouse" in stockholm. I think it would be better to have this kind of framing surround a home. catwalk atrium over a tiny home in center would be ideal. from those videos a greenhouse appears to create a solar bubble and add protection from the elements. I wouldn't try to heat it. I'd make the framed area a daytime outside space during the winter months. A smaller inner home would maintain heat efficiently.
Not at all. I have held a number of retreats there in the colder season and the way all the areas are built they all get heat and retain it.Despite the forest they left in tact the shade doesn't keep it cold and damp, it keeps it cozy and gentle. There are a few fireplaces throughtout and a couple of areas that are solarium like. They catch every sunset on a massive west deck and the mid deck under the glass walkway has a hottub for those days you get a chill. It's the very large wolf spiders that like the cool forest that I had trouble with...they grow big there and keep showing in in bathtubs and sinks..always good for a change in breathing pattern. 😅
