NEW LISTING!
1144 Miller Road, BOWEN ISLAND
This is the kind of classic Bowen cottage people hope they can still find - an inviting way to own a first home on the island. Leave the car parked: the ferry, shops and restaurants are nearby, while beaches and forest trails are close enough to visit whenever the mood strikes. At the end of the day, come home and settle into the hot tub that’s tucked away in a private corner on the deck.
Inside, the home is warm, bright and full of character, with reclaimed fir floors, a wood-burning fireplace and a heat pump to keep things comfortable through every season. Folding stairs lead to a finished, low-height loft above, adding useful space for storage, cozy movie nights or an extra sleeping area. A metal roof provides longevity ideal for West Coast living.
Recent additions include a new fridge, washer, and dryer. The crawl space was also recently spray foam insulated, helping the home retain heat and use energy more efficiently. Outside, a new shed gives tools, bikes and beach gear a place of their own.
The yard has been shaped into a series of outdoor spaces, from the fenced front garden filled with roses, hydrangeas and rhododendrons to the forested area rising behind the home. Stone steps climb through the backyard to a newly built platform deck tucked among the trees - a peaceful spot for dinners, lounging or evenings with friends.
Homes at this price point, with this much character in this location, do not come along often on Bowen. Here is somewhere to begin, settle in, and add your own chapter to a home that has already lived a few.
