Sea Forest Home is a rare waterfront sanctuary where art, architecture, and nature converge. Designed and lived in by Canadian artist-designer Sabina Hill, this contemporary coastal residence was conceived as a live-in gallery — a gesamtkunstwerk — shaped by the surrounding forest canopy and ever-changing sea. Trained in architecture, Hill envisioned the home as a complete work of art, where spatial flow is shaped by natural light and custom furnishings and original artworks are intrinsically connected to the landscape. Every element has been purposefully designed or curated for this specific site, subtly uniting function and beauty with emotional resonance. Distinct from a staged interior, the home may be acquired as a fully integrated, turnkey offering that preserves the integrity of its design vision — or purchased independently of its curated contents. An exceptional opportunity for those who value cohesion, craftsmanship, and a seamless connection between art and daily life. Privately sited on a remarkable 1.22-acre hooked waterfront parcel overlooking Pender Harbour, the property captures sweeping ocean vistas and spectacular sunsets. Direct access is by landscape steps and stairs. A private swimmable beach invites kayaking, paddleboarding, and year-round coastal living, while expansive decks and a patio provide front-row seating to seals, eagles, and passing orcas. Located within the coveted 'green zone', future dock potential further enhances the long-term value of this extraordinary shoreline. Completed in 2019 and protected by a 2-5-10 New Home Warranty, the approximately 3,000 sq. ft. custom home was designed for flexibility and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and large-scale high-performance Cascadia fibreglass windows and doors frame the landscape at every turn. The four generous sundecks are finished in TREX decking. The main entertainment deck — an outdoor living room accessed off the kitchen through the 11.5' sliding glass doors — is complete with a Solus gas fire bowl and BBQ connection, perfect for gatherings beneath the coastal sky. The main level offers open-concept living with casual luxury and easy elegance, anchored by the gas fireplace wall unit and beautifully integrated kitchen and dining area. The serene primary bedroom includes a spa-inspired ensuite, and walk-in closet, with roughed-in plumbing for a future washer and dryer. A substantial studio/flex space easily converts to additional bedrooms, guest quarters, or a private office with its own entry, offering versatility for families or creative pursuits. Below, the fully self-contained two-bedroom suite features a private entrance, ensuite bathrooms, gas fireplace, kitchen, pantry, ocean-view deck, and hot tub — thoughtfully fire-separated and code-ready for rental. Successfully operated as a five-star Airbnb, it has generated consistent seasonal income while maintaining privacy between levels. Beyond its impeccable design, the home is exceptionally well equipped with a forced-air gas furnace, heat pump with air conditioning, HRV system, two electrical panels and two hot water tanks. Across Francis Peninsula Road infrastructure — including EV-ready 200-amp service — is in place to support future development. Above the four- plus parking area, the forested parcel is zoned for an additional residence, auxiliary buildings, or potential subdivision, creating rare flexibility for a family estate or long-term investment strategy. Equally suited as a full-time residence, multi-generational retreat, or luxury income property, Sea Forest Home is a move-in-ready, energy-efficient waterfront offering that combines lifestyle, architectural integrity, income potential, and future upside — a true legacy property on the Sunshine Coast.
