Upstairs, serenity awaits in a birch wood-wrapped space with built-in clothing storage in the dressing area. Up a few risers, perched amongst the trees with views across the harbour, you'll be in your own “tree house” retreat, wrapped in the warmth of wood & views of the treetops to lull you to sleep. On the property, there is a 2nd garden cottage, with its own 3pce bathroom, sitting/sleeping area & built-in storage. The laundry is part of the summer kitchen - a sweet space to cook on hot summer days or for guests to help themselves without imposing. The studio/den is separate from the main cottage, allowing focus on work, meditation or craft. All of this is connected by red cedar decking & landscaping, providing multiple use, function & ultimate privacy. This home comes fully furnished with designer and vintage pieces, curated for full enjoyment and comfort.
