Introducing the iconic Book Lovers House—one of Sidney Island’s most exceptional waterfront estates. Designed by Blue Sky Architecture, this 2,300sf custom home sits on a sun-drenched point with panoramic exposure and all-day light. Inspired by the shoreline and solar orientation, the home and gardens form an elegant oval plan, creating a sheltered, sun-filled courtyard framed by the main residence and gatehouse. Flexible spaces on either side offer guest accommodation, storage, or studio potential. Garden walls and trellises connect the spaces, while the surrounding forest remains untouched for ultimate privacy. Set on 2.28 acres across two titles, with full solar, two wells, and new generator. Single-level 3 bed + den, 2 bath with workshops and beach access with oysters at your doorstep. Island amenities include private marina, airstrip, sandy beaches, and walking trails—minutes from Sidney and Victoria, yet a world away.
