About this property

The Sea Lion Ocean Front Luxury Estate

Wake up to sweeping ocean views, watch eagles soar overhead, and spend your evenings relaxing in the hot tub overlooking the rugged West Coast at Sea Lion Estate.

Set along more than 700 feet of private waterfront near Sooke, Sea Lion Estate offers an extraordinary Vancouver Island escape for families and groups looking to gather, reconnect and experience the coast together. A freshwater creek winds through the property, while trails and shoreline access invite you to explore the estate’s natural surroundings and watch for seals, orcas and other local wildlife.

Originally built in 1928, the six-bedroom, six-bathroom main house combines historic West Coast character with the space and amenities of a luxury retreat. Spend mornings over coffee with an ocean view, gather around the table for memorable meals, or settle into one of the home’s comfortable living spaces after a day exploring nearby beaches and trails.

For guests who love to cook, the gourmet kitchen is a highlight of the home, featuring premium appliances including a distinctive La Cornue range and plenty of space for preparing meals together or bringing in a private chef.

Outside, enjoy the expansive oceanfront grounds, hot tub, BBQ terrace and spectacular coastal setting. The estate even features a private helipad steps from the house, allowing for arranged helicopter arrivals or scenic tours of Vancouver Island’s coastline.

Why they chose this property

Sea Lion Estate is surrounded by the rugged beauty that makes Vancouver Island’s West Coast so special. The setting is peaceful and secluded, with ocean, forest and wildlife all around you, yet the town of Sooke is only about 15 minutes away for groceries, restaurants and local shops.

What we enjoy most about the area is how much there is to experience without losing that sense of escape. Spend the day exploring nearby beaches such as French Beach, Mystic Beach and Sombrio Beach, hike through coastal forests, visit Sheringham Point Lighthouse or swim and explore the trails at Sooke Potholes.

Continue west and you’ll find Jordan River and, farther along, Port Renfrew and Botanical Beach. The drive itself is part of the experience, with beautiful ocean views and countless opportunities to stop and explore.

What makes this property unique

What makes Sea Lion Estate truly special is the combination of privacy, history, natural beauty and space. Set along more than 700 feet of exclusive waterfront, the estate feels like a private West Coast retreat surrounded by ocean, forest and wildlife.

Originally built in 1928, the main house has a character and sense of place that is difficult to replicate. Guests can watch for orcas and seals from the property, see eagles soaring overhead, explore the shoreline, or simply relax in the hot tub and take in the ocean views.

Inside, the home is designed for gathering, with six bedrooms, six bathrooms, generous living spaces and a gourmet kitchen featuring premium appliances and a distinctive La Cornue range.

Perhaps most uniquely, Sea Lion Estate even has its own private helipad, allowing guests to arrange a spectacular arrival or scenic helicopter experience along Vancouver Island’s coastline.

It’s the rare combination of a luxury home, expansive private waterfront and the untamed beauty of Vancouver Island’s West Coast that makes a stay at Sea Lion Estate so memorable.
