Welcome to your dream riverside escape on the beautiful Cowichan River. This thoughtfully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a rare lot bordered by the river on two sides—perfect for swimming, tubing, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water’s edge. The river offers a front-row seat to the changing seasons, with year-round views of wildlife and flowing water. Inside, you'll find a well-maintained two-level layout with tasteful updates, quality appliances, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Large windows frame the natural beauty outside, creating a peaceful backdrop to everyday living. Major improvements include a new house roof (2021), garage roof (2020), gutters (2021), and a full house repaint in 2021. The deck features sleek glass railings (2022), and the yard was enclosed with new fencing and gate (2023). A fully permitted, engineered riverbank project was completed in 2021. The concrete driveway was poured in 2021. Hot water tank was replaced in 2018, and the lower bathroom was replumbed with new toilets in 2019. The fridge, oven, and bar cooler were updated in 2021/2022. A generator installed in 2008 was upgraded with new propane tanks in 2023. The home includes a Securco alarm and camera system, with vents cleaned in 2024. The oil furnace is serviced annually and filled twice per year (approx. $1,200). The oil tank is newer and covered under a service contract. The home is also plumbed for a hot tub. All windows and exterior doors were replaced during a major reno between 2010 and 2015. Electrical is on a BC Hydro $65/month plan. The spacious two-car garage adds convenience, while the stunning natural surroundings make this home ideal as a full-time residence, peaceful getaway, or investment opportunity.
