2480 England Rd — Courtenay, British Columbia

Set on a quiet 1.5-acre property surrounded by tall trees, mature landscaping, and peaceful gardens, this timber frame home offers the kind of setting that immediately slows life down. From the moment you arrive, the warm wood details, vaulted entry, and natural surroundings create a sense of calm, privacy, and quality that feels hard to find. Inside, the home is designed for comfortable everyday living. Morning light fills the main living spaces through large windows, while vaulted timber frame ceilings and tongue-and-groove cedar add warmth and character. The living room is a place to gather, relax, and enjoy the view, with a wood-burning stove and stone backdrop creating a cozy focal point. The open connection between the kitchen, dining, and living areas feels welcoming, whether it is morning coffee, family dinner, or an evening with friends. The kitchen has the space and function to be part of daily life. With granite counters, a large island, pantry, and full-height cabinetry, it feels both polished and practical. The layout offers room for family, guests, hobbies, and working from home, with 4 bedrooms and a private primary suite for a comfortable retreat. Outdoor living is a major part of the appeal. The covered timber frame deck extends the living space into the natural setting, overlooking gardens, raised beds, mature landscaping, and a quiet treed backdrop. It is easy to imagine summer dinners outside with sounds of songbirds, gardening behind the deer fencing, or simply enjoying the privacy. The detached shop with a 12-foot door and studio suite adds flexibility for storage, projects, guests, or creative space. This peaceful setting is a short walk to hiking and horseback riding trails and the Puntledge River, while still being a short drive to schools, downtown Courtenay, and the Inland Highway. A rare package of craftsmanship, privacy, and convenience, this property may also be purchased with the neighbouring 4.9-acre property, also for sale (id:63357)
