✨REMAX Conference 2026✨ Leaving with new ideas, stronger connections and motivation to help more families into their dream homes. 🤍

We are grateful to have shared success, challenges and creative solutions with some of the best & brightest agents in Canada over the past few days. Our main goal? Be better, provide more value to our clients and keep growing. 🔥

Clients who move out of our service area & need a new local agent can be placed in the caring hands of other professional Realtors who we know and trust. We want our clients to have an elevated experience wherever they search for a new home. And we have a lot of connections...so if you need a Realtor in central island, it's still us, we gotchu! 👯
🫈Across Canada?🦞
We have the best Agent for that.

Until next year Remax ✌️

SUP with Arbot? 🏄‍♀️🌊

Well… they’re DONE & Prices are sharpened to $995,000!🔑🔥

All 4 brand-new homes at Arbot Road are complete, move-in ready & waiting for their people. OPEN HOUSE this Sunday 2-4.

And because choosing just one might be the hardest part, we thought we’d help you compare. 😉

✨ Different designer-selected finishes in each home
🌊 Panoramic ocean views
🍴 Gorgeous kitchens
🌿 Different yard spaces
🚐 Dedicated RV or boat parking
✨ Epoxy-coated garage floors
🛏 3 bedrooms + a HUGE rec room
📦 4-foot crawlspaces with enough storage to hide… pretty much everything you own
And while these homes share a roofline at the garage, they’re designed to give you some breathing room from the neighbours — separate garage walls AND an air gap between the shared garage wall.

So no, you definitely don’t need a Night at the Roxbury relationship with the people next door. 😂

The best part? Each home has its own personality.
Best kitchen? Best ensuite? Best yard? Best ocean-view balcony?
We have our favourites… but we want to know yours. 👀

And when Westwood Lake is just around the corner, you can spend the afternoon SUP’ing, take an unexpected swim 😬, and be home in no time.

🏄‍♀️ SUP?
Come tour all four & pick YOUR favourite.
OPEN to you - Sunday, August 30 2-4pm

📍 2302 Arbot Road | Nanaimo, BC
🏡 4 Brand-New Homes | NOW MOVE-IN READY

🌊 GABRIOLA ISLAND WATERFRONT ESTATE 🌊

Some properties are measured in square footage.

Others are measured in moments.

✨ Watching orcas pass by from your deck.
✨ Picking fresh fruit from your orchard.
✨ Walking your private path to a secluded beach below.
✨ Experiencing the magical "Moon Over Valdez" rise across the water.
✨ Enjoying complete peace, yet being only 20 minutes from Nanaimo by ferry.

Welcome to a truly extraordinary oceanfront estate on Gabriola Island's warm, sheltered and sunny shoreline.

🏡 6,000+ sq ft of finished living space
🌊 Approx. 170 ft of waterfront
🌳 2.5 private acres
🛏️ 5 bedrooms + office
🛁 5 bathrooms
🚗 Attached garage + 1,037 sq ft drive-in shop
🚜 1,872 sq ft 3-bay pole shed
🏖️ Beach access via private stairs & drawbridge
🏊 Heated swim spa & sauna
🔥 2 woodstoves + 2 heat pumps
💧 16,000-gallon cistern + additional 4,000 garden water system
🌿 Vegetable gardens, orchard & mature landscaping
⚡ Whole-home generator restores power in seconds

Inside, soaring post & beam architecture, 26 skylights, Brazilian cherry hardwood floors and expansive picture windows frame spectacular marine views from nearly every room.

Outside, the experience is even more remarkable.

Watch eagles soar overhead. Spot passing yachts, tugboats and the occasional pod of whales. Wander forest trails, visit nearby petroglyphs, or spend the afternoon exploring your own stretch of shoreline. The stars shine brighter here, the pace slows down, and every day feels connected to nature. ✨🌙

This isn't just a waterfront home.

It's a legacy property.
A family retreat.
A place where memories are made for generations.

📍 2070 Cooper Road, Gabriola Island
