If peace and privacy are what you crave, then this oceanfront estate in Sooke, BC might be just what you've been looking for.
Nestled at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, 7214 Austins Place is a remarkable gated estate backing onto CRD oceanfront parkland with panoramic views of the Juan de Fuca Strait — the Salish Sea's main outlet to the Pacific Ocean — and the Olympic Mountains are visible from nearly every room in the house.
Sooke, situated on the southernmost edge of Vancouver Island, is a sought-after place to live for those who appreciate a quieter way of life but still want access to city conveniences. Sooke is a scenic 50km drive away from Victoria, and offers residents and visitors alike an authentic west-coast experience, with its rugged rainforests and pristine beaches.

The 3-bed, 3-bath home was originally built in 2002 and boasts 2,869 sq. ft of tastefully remodeled living space, all atop a 0.40-acre lot that boasts breathtaking coastline views -- and beyond.
