965 Balmoral Rd — Comox, British Columbia

The moment you meander down the driveway to Snowberry Hill House you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time. The 7-acre parcel, high on the Willemar Bluffs, with its sweeping views down Baynes Sound, has been held by one family since the 1890s. There are unparalleled views of Hornby & Denman Islands from this remarkable home nestled on a peaceful & private property in the sought-after Comox Peninsula. In 1912, a charming farmhouse was built as a summer home & then in the 1930’s, rebuilt as a stylish year-round residence in the Arts & Crafts manner. Eventually, the property became the retirement home for James D. Curtis who planted a number of trees, including a century-old California redwood that stands amid the Douglas firs foresting much of the acreage. This heritage home is steeped in history & is the legacy of the Curtis family. The stunning property is located in the most tranquil setting imaginable. Enjoy your Westcoast retreat; just minutes to the amenities of downtown Comox. Zoning allows for 2 full size residences. (id:63357)
