7445 Denman Rd

Unique opportunity to own a one third share in one of Denman Island’s last remaining heritage farms. Be part of 74 acres of field, forest, and 1000' of oceanfront – a magnificent barn, hundred-year-old apple orchard, large and productive farm garden, tennis court and Anne of Green Gables farmhouse. With each third share is your own dwelling and allotted one acre that surrounds the home. Access this family home at the end of a private drive, that passes through a forest of Douglas firs, where you will find your own secluded one-acre oasis – an open-plan home, nestled in lawn and garden, through which you walk out onto an expansive deck with a breathtaking view of lush pasture, sparkling ocean and glistening snow-capped mountains. Owned by the same family for fifty years, the warm home, designed and built by local craftsmen using materials drawn largely from the property, and its surroundings. Three bedrooms on the main floor plus the sleeping loft provides lots of room for family and friends to stay. Locally handcrafted stained-glass windows are a wonderful accent to the home. The farm sized kitchen includes an eating alcove and lots of countertop and storage spaces. The classic hand-picked rock fireplace and the captivating views are strong features in the expansive living room. This property and home have been the perfect place for all ages - from retirees wanting to garden or paint, to youngsters enjoying board games by the large stone fireplace and sports on land and sea, to grandchildren chasing butterflies in the fields, poking around in tidepools and endlessly turning over rocks on the 1000 foot long ocean front and riding their bicycles through the trails in the adjacent forest --- truly heaven on earth.
