Surrounded by towering cedars, firs and lush coastal vegetation, the property enjoys spectacular southwest sun exposure throughout the day, culminating in breathtaking sunsets over the inlet. Thoughtfully positioned to maximize its commanding outlook, the 2,743 sq. ft. residence is complemented by an impressive 1,196 sq. ft. wraparound deck that serves as a seamless extension of the home's living space. Whether enjoying your morning coffee surrounded by birdsong or entertaining family and friends as the evening sun reflects across the water, every corner of the property embraces the peaceful waterfront setting.

Ample storage throughout makes the property well suited for full-time living or extended stays, while the substantial unfinished basement provides exceptional space for boats, kayaks, paddleboards, fishing gear, tools and all the equipment needed to enjoy the surrounding wilderness. Complete with hydro, community water service and a septic system, the property offers all the essentials for comfortable coastal living. Having remained in the same family since the 1950s, the home has been lovingly cared for and enjoyed for generations.

6787 Sechelt Inlet Road - Sechelt, BC
Sechelt Inlet is one of the principal inlets of the BC Coast and the third of such inlets north from the 49th parallel, the first of which is Burrard Inlet, Vancouver's harbour. The Inlet is significant in that it almost makes an island of what is instead the Sechelt Peninsula, whose isthmus is at the town of Sechelt at the head of the Inlet. The isthmus is less than 1.2 km (0.75 miles) in distance.
Another significant thing about Sechelt Inlet is the famous saltwater rapid (Sechelt Rapids) as it enters Skookumchuck Narrows, which rages with near waterfall-like fury during tide changes. Other fjords on the BC Coast have similar rapids, also called skookumchucks (strong waters in the Chinook Jargon, the old coastal trade language), which like Sechelt Inlet are caused by the typical shallows near the mouth of a fjord as the volume of water inside the fjord's depths tries to pour out to, or in from, the more open waters beyond. In Sechelt Inlet's case, the Skookumchuck Narrows are exactly as its name describes - narrow - forcing the water to an even greater torrent than is typical elsewhere.
Sechelt Inlet has two side-inlets, Salmon Inlet, which begins at a small power dam at the mouth of the Clowhom River and is about 23 km in length, and Narrows Inlet, which starts at the mouth of the Tzoonie River and includes the Tzoonie Narrows. The latter is about 15 km (9.3 miles) in length and emerges on the main inlet just inside the inner mouth of the Skookumchuck Narrows. Egmont is located 6 km (3.6 miles) off Highway 101 at the northern end of the Sechelt Peninsula on the Sunshine Coast of BC. The Sunshine Coast is accessible from the Lower Mainland only by boat or airplane. Travellers aboard BC Ferries leave Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver for the 45-minute ride to Langdale on the Sechelt Peninsula.
Adding to the property's unique character is an exceptional collection of mature specimen trees and ornamental gardens, including a magnificent California redwood, an English bay tree, and vibrant rhododendrons that frame the home with colour and natural beauty.
Nestled within one of the Sunshine Coast's most picturesque marine environments, Sechelt Inlet offers an unmatched outdoor lifestyle where adventure begins at your doorstep. From the property, spend your days boating through the calm, protected waters of the inlet, kayaking secluded shorelines, paddleboarding hidden coves, or fishing and crabbing in the rich coastal waters. Nearby destinations such as Skookumchuck Narrows, Tetrahedron Provincial Park, Porpoise Bay Provincial Park and the many islands, beaches and anchorages throughout the inlet provide endless opportunities for exploration. Hiking, mountain biking and wildlife viewing are all within easy reach, while nearby Tillicum Bay Marina and the public boat launch at Porpoise Bay make accessing the property simple and convenient. Just a short boat ride from the vibrant community of Sechelt, you'll enjoy the perfect balance of complete waterfront seclusion and easy access to restaurants, shopping, golf, marinas, galleries and all the amenities that make the Sunshine Coast one of British Columbia's most sought-after recreational destinations.
