White Bear Cottage-Chesterman, OD shower, Surf, BBQ

Welcome to White Bear Cottage, a modern and stunning retreat located across the street from the world-famous Chesterman Beach. This two-storey, two-bedroom, one bath cottage wraps you in a west coast mix of salvaged, recycled and sustainable materials, with modern accents of cedar, reclaimed wood, concrete floors, steel beams and an outdoor shower. This space creates both a warm and inspiring setting for your enjoyment.

The Space:
Located directly across the street from the world-famous Chesterman Beach, the cottage is a fully detached building, perched on the side of the lot, facing south along the edge of the lush forest. The main floor boasts an open concept living room and kitchen area, with a large island for dining and conversation. There is also a covered front patio, which includes a dining table and outdoor seating, creating the perfect setting for warmer days. Inside, you’ll find a cozy and inviting space featuring bedrooms with a minimalist, yet functional design, including queen beds, reclaimed, live-edge accents and bedside tables. Upstairs, you'll enjoy a mezzanine space, to sneak away and work or indulge in some yoga or stretching after your time in the water. The cottage uses a combination of heat pump heating with bedroom baseboards for efficient and sustainable comfort in this well-insulated home. There is a continuous fresh-air ventilation system throughout the cottage.​

​If you appreciate award winning architecture, a comfortable and thoughtful layout, and an opportunity to stay steps away from some of Canada’s most famous beaches, then this place is a must. Immerse yourself in the wild beauty of nature while enjoying the modern comforts and sustainable charm that the White Bear Cottage has to offer!​
​Please note: the vintage living room couches have been replaced by two grey upholstered couches.

Property Surroundings: The cottage is one of two main buildings on the property, nestled the forest and oriented away from the primary residence. The owners live, work, and play at the main house, located at the rear of the property. This is the owner’s primary and year-round residence. You may occasionally hear the joyful sounds of children at play, though rest assured, they’ll be quiet well before our 10 PM quiet hours. Because this is a family home, the owners will be found working outside on the property, making improvements such as landscaping and other updates. Any maintenance completed on the property will be carried out during daytime hours only.​

Guest Suitability: This home is best suited for 2–4 people - age 4 and up, due to the layout and interior/exterior design.
