Across British Columbia, this quintet of homes makes the landscape the main event, from Mt. Baker in Mission to Howe Sound in Lions Bay, with coastal mountains and Parksville’s beach in between. Privacy reads as a shared luxury, whether through acreage, protected forest, or a waterfront lot with beach access. Design leans custom and considered, including a contemporary restoration with Dutch farmhouse influences and a West Coast home framed by lush gardens. Several addresses also suggest flexible, multi-use living through suite or second-home potential.

From its elevated setting in Stave Falls, this 2010-built estate unfolds across 2.84 private acres, backed by protected Crown Forest for a rare sense of seclusion with no visible neighbours. Inside, coffered ceilings, hardwood floors, and radiant in-floor heating set a refined tone, while a heat pump with A/C and soaring 11-foot ceilings in the great room and formal dining area keep daily life comfortable and airy. The primary bedroom opens to a private covered deck, where southeast-facing Mt. Baker views become a quiet morning ritual. Downstairs, a fully finished walkout basement with separate entrance includes two bedrooms, a second laundry, and a roughed-in kitchen—ideal for extended family or guests. A powered workshop and ample RV and boat parking round out the acreage, minutes from Rolley, Whonnock, and Hayward Lakes yet peacefully removed.
