Victory Island is a premier 12–13‑acre private estate located in the scenic Jervis Inlet on British Columbia's Sunshine Coast. One of the most significant and well-appointed private islands in the region, it combines natural solitude with sophisticated, fully permitted infrastructure. Positioned in a protected bay with sweeping views, the property offers a rare turn-key opportunity for a seasonal retreat or a year-round coastal residence.
PROPERTY DETAILS
The island's centerpiece is a 1,340-square-foot cottage designed by B. Gordon Hlynsky Architect of West Vancouver. Professionally engineered and constructed, the residence features a bright open-plan layout with two large bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, dining room, and full bathroom. Floor-to-ceiling orientation captures sunlight from sunrise to sunset while framing the surrounding inlet and mountain vistas. Modern conveniences include a Bosch on-demand hot water system, propane appliances, and satellite connectivity. A south-facing wraparound deck extends over the calm, weather-protected bay, providing an expansive outdoor living area.
LAND AND WATER
The island's 12–13 acre landscape is covered in a rich coastal forest of hemlock, cedar, Douglas fir, and over 200 native arbutus trees. The surrounding marine environment is exceptionally vibrant, featuring naturally established, sustainable oyster and clam beds right on-site, alongside immediate access to abundant spot prawns and world-class salmon fishing just moments from the dock. The island's waters are frequently visited by Orca and Humpback whales, which can often be spotted directly from the deck.
ACCESS AND UTILITIES
Victory Island is strategically located on the northwest side of Hardy Island, just a five-minute boat ride from the Saltery Bay BC Ferry Terminal and a short commute to Powell River for mainland provisions. The property is fully powered by a robust off-grid system housed in a professionally engineered utility building, featuring low-maintenance solar storage batteries, all-LED lighting, and a backup biofuel generator. Fresh water is supplied by a deep 350-foot well that pumps pure water into two large holding tanks, gravity-feeding into the home's pressurized system. Maritime logistics are exceptional, anchored by a professionally engineered concrete dock capable of safely mooring vessels over 70 feet, equipped with a 6-foot-wide wheelchair-accessible alloy ramp, and designed to accommodate helicopter landings.
LIFESTYLE AND VALUE
Victory Island offers the pinnacle of Pacific Northwest island living. Combining architectural integrity, rich marine ecology, and off-grid independence, the estate serves as an uncompromised personal sanctuary. Its prime position along a favored coastal navigation route ensures it remains an accessible, fully equipped haven for the discerning buyer seeking complete private island stewardship.
