A private oceanfront oasis is calling. Witts End is a delightful combination of ingenuity, beauty, & practicality. Located on the only private island in the Nuchatlitz archipelago, & surrounded by provincial park, this island paradise off the NW tip of Nootka offers the real West Coast experience. Accessed by boat from Tahsis or Gold River, and by seaplane from Vancouver, Seattle, or Gold River, and close to the Nootka Trail, the Nuchatlitz area is one 3 top kayaking, fishing, and camping destinations off of Vancouver Isle. Deep inlets, hidden lagoons, sandy beaches, & sea caves are accessible. The 3 solid dwellings of Witts End take artistic advantage of the waterfront setting. Wrap around decks, a beach for launching kayaks, a private trail through old growth rain forest to a private meadow, & amazing views of the Milky Way through the upper bedroom window, are some features of this beautiful island home. Wood walls and ceilings, tile work, a sunroom, lush gardens and an abundance of skylights create serenity and comfort. Large windows in the living and kitchen area overlook a bay reflecting the edge of the forest where wildlife wanders a safe distance away. A wood stove anchors the space, and heats an upstairs water tank for winter bathing. 2 charming and separate guest quarters allow visitors peace and privacy. With 4-5 designated acres, this is a stunning place for gathering family, friends or groups of fishermen or kayakers. This home is designed for functionality & efficiency. A new metal roof on the main dwelling, screws on all other roofs, deck replacement, new windows in sleeping dormer, a new solar system and battery bank, new plumbing, and compost bin plus a 32x10 foot dock and new aluminum ramp make this a solid success for west coast living. 4 water cisterns collect plenty of water for the driest of summers, & gravity feed to both home and garden. Good internet and phone connection make this an alluring lifestyle set in the tranquility of deep nature.
