***OPEN HOUSE SAT Nov 29 (2-4pm)*** This is a well cared for character cottage on .45 acre. Owned by one family for 45 yrs, they are ready to pass the torch on to a new family that will cherish and enjoy. The cottage is open concept living with vaulted wood ceilings, a skylight and windows on all sides to maximize the natural lighting on the main floor. Upstairs you will find one bdrm and a loft space that can be used as an office, dressing area or additional sleeping space. There has been a series of upgrades over the years: A metal roof in 2008, new windows in 2015, and the deck, laminate flooring & bathroom within the last 2 years. Enjoy the south facing deck with plenty of sun on the front and a covered deck at the back, this deck can be used through all seasons and a great area to put your bbq. The back deck leads to a lovely garden with fresh herbs, vegetables, flowers and fruit trees; cherry, plum and figs. The garden is fully fenced to protect it from the deer. There is a detached insulated workshop with power along with 3 other storage/garden sheds. You’ll have a peace of mind and convenience of being on the Magic Lake water & sewer system. This home would benefit from investing in a new woodstove and/or a new heating system, perhaps a heatpump or a propane fireplace. It would make a cozy home for full time living but also an excellent vacation property enjoyed with family and friends for years to come. A quiet location at the back of a cul-de-sac, this property backs onto forest and park land with a trail that goes from Buck Lake to Boat Nook (Ocean Access point), sometimes a waterfall can be heard from the property. With the park so close by, deer are frequent visitors with several fawns born on the property. You are also within walking distance of Thieves Bay Marina, our prime whale watching area on Pender. Residents in the area are offered low cost moorage. Take a look at our virtual tour & video. A full info pkg is available.

Besides being a Realtor, Andrew is also a certified French teacher and chess guru. He taught high school English in Paris from 1997-1998 and then, after moving to Taiwan to study Mandarin in 1999, he opened and ran a chess school in Taiwan from 2003-2008. (It’s still open and running today!) 

Andrew and his wife Shu-Hui have two children, Jasmine and Joshua, and together, they enjoy camping, hiking, and cycling all over Vancouver Island. He still enjoys teaching languages, chess, and tennis, but most of his efforts are spent on teaching his kids, but he has taught (and will in the future) volunteer chess classes at Oaklands.
