| description: | Set among the trees on a 1/2 acre this modern version of the cabin will steal your heart. Sleek, stylish and durable, you will be the envy of your friends in this prefab Honomobo container home - the only one on Bowen Island. Constructed of re-purposed corten steel from shipping containers it is designed to stand the test of time. Energy efficient heating and cooling are provided by a heat pump. The main floor living/dining/kitchen has south-facing floor to ceiling windows and opens onto a 600 sf covered wraparound deck for relaxing or entertaining in any weather. The free-standing wood-burning stove compliments the heat pump and easily heats the space in the event of a power outage. The lower level, added in 2020, is clad in fibre cement board and contains a studio guest suite rental and a fully insulated workshop that could be converted into more living space. Not far from hiking trails, and just a short walk to Scarborough Beach, your opportunity to live smartly and sustainably among nature is here. |
