Overview
Description
Stunning, natural, intimate - here is a place that feels strangely familiar, maybe from a dream. With all the inherent wildness of this coast, someone took the time to groom the land. To connect its special dots, and establish paths and gardens along the extensive shoreline. To carve out a beautiful spot to build this comfortable home, and build it well. So that when inside, you still feel immersed in nature, yet safe from its moods. And when outside, no unnatural sound will touch your ears, and your lovely neighbours, who value their privacy, will respect yours. So dream! See yourself launching a boat, jump into the ocean, watching a storm by the fire, tending to flowers, and roaming the seven acre woods to make friends with the birds and squirrels. The passing of time will feel effortless, and you'll never be bored again. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.
