Luxury real estate just got a little bit more exciting with the listing of Barry Pepper's Qualicum Beach B.C. estate. Situated on just over 5 acres, this private oceanfront sanctuary, complete with guest cottage would make an ideal luxury retirement retreat or gorgeous home for a young family.

 

Award winning actor Barry PepperPepper is a Vancouver Island native, born in Campbell River, British Columbia. During his childhood he travelled extensively with his sailing family, then took graphic design and marketing in college before shifting his focus to acting.

He will be in the 2010 release Like Dandelion Dust.

 

This luxury celebrity estate for sale, advertised on WaterfrontWest.com, is just steps from the ocean. The main home is an intimate cedar sided, 2 bedroom rancher with rustic elegance. The master suite is a retreat unto itself, taking up the entire upper floor with a 5 piece ensuite, huge walk-in closet and separate office area. Downstairs is adorned with classic features such as hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and a river rock fireplace. There is also an extravagant new media room for owners and guests alike to enjoy. Bricked courtyards at the front and back provide ample private space for outdoor living.

 
Situated next to the house is a huge, three bay carriage house with the third bay converted to a workshop with 220 amp power and a 940 sq. ft. upstairs room. There is also a very eco-friendly one bedroom log guest cottage with a sod roof, a sustainable feature that helps regulate interior temperatures and absorbs carbon from the atmosphere. Situated next to the eco-cottage is an organic vegetable garden. Recent improvements to the property include a $30,000 water system, including a 4500 gallon water tank.
