Address: 641 Gallagher Bay Road, Mayne Island,
BC
Beautifully built and designed by the master-craftsman
Owner, this 1300 sq.ft. cottage is privately located on a ten
acre parcel in a quiet rural area of Mayne Island.
Extensive use of natural materials has resulted
in a truly "island home". The exterior shake siding,
beautiful stonework, large log beams, and wood-framed windows
set the theme. Heavy handcrafted wood doors lead to the spacious
open plan interior which features high log-beamed ceilings with
large central skylight, beautiful wood siding, cement floors,
and a unique use of Island sandstone on two walls including the
unique fireplace wall, plus several cosy, private alcoves for
sleeping areas.
This large room beautifully accommodates comfortable
and spacious living and dining areas. Beautifully appointed kitchen
with good cupboard and counter space plus stainless steel island,
built-in oven and stove top and free-standing wood stove. A three-piece
bathroom and separate laundry room complete the picture.
The driveway leads from Gallagher Bay Road to the cottage site
which is very privately located and overlooks a large pond. A
good assortment of Fir, Cedar, and Arbutus trees surround this
sunny open section. Further along and past the cottage, the driveway
enters a more forested area of the property and there is plenty
of room for outbuildings / workshops etc. Water supply is by private
well. Heating sources are electric and wood.
Lots of land !Lots of privacy !
A natural and beautiful cottage in a natural and
beautiful setting !
This home is an ideal retreat and a perfect home
for the artistically inclined.
