Sidney Island, British Columbia V8L5Y9

If you’ve been dreaming of waterfront acreage, this 1.7-acre retreat on spectacular Sidney Island brings that vision to life. As the southernmost of the Gulf Islands, it enjoys a gentle climate and a coastal calm that feels worlds away from the mainland yet remains reassuringly accessible. Days unfold at an easy, unhurried pace: beachcombing at low tide, paddling through quiet coves, casting a line in clear waters, or wandering forest trails where eagles, deer and songbirds provide the only background noise. Sunrises wash the water in soft colour, evenings invite stargazing from the shoreline, and every visit feels like stepping into a private resort where time slows and the natural world takes centre stage. Morning coffee on the deck, quiet walks along the driftwood-strewn beach and afternoons spent reading or painting outdoors become grounding rituals that make each stay feel restorative. The island’s warm, close-knit community offers optional involvement-join thoughtful committees, stewardship projects and relaxed social gatherings if you wish, or simply savour uninterrupted R&R with a book and the soft rhythm of waves against the shore. More than 1,300 acres of shared island land invite discovery, including forest trails, protected conservancy zones, managed forest, a heritage orchard and a beloved freshwater swimming pond, plus easy access to miles of natural beaches. Practical comforts support effortless island living: owners enjoy a private breakwater-protected marina, kayak launch, mooring buoys and a grass airstrip for smooth arrival by water or air. The property itself offers over 215 ft of oceanfront with sweeping views across Haro Strait, where dawn rises over open water and Mount Baker anchors the horizon. A cleared building site, shared well, water cistern, and storage shed provide an excellent foundation for creating your future island sanctuary-an inspiring canvas in one of British Columbia’s most thoughtfully stewarded coastal communities.
