OPEN HOUSE SAT APR 18 11-1. In the Slopes of Lake Cowichan, a thriving, safe, clean &amp; quiet community. With friendly neighbours, minimal traffic on your no thru street, generous size lots and wooded privacy behind your place, this is a neighbourhood you want to call home. Boasting hiking, walking and cycling trails everywhere, dog parks, and river tubing in the Summer, you will fall in love with all this has to offer. An abundance of almost 3000 finished sq ft, this main floor level Rancher includes a walk out basement perfectly designed for in laws, company or your growing family. With multiple Entertainment and Great room areas, this fantastic newer property is the right mix of home and function. Still under home warranty, you will be impressed with the fit, finish and level of quality. A separate parking stall is ideal for large boats, trailer or an RV. It would be difficult to design, build and replicate this home for approx $300 sq/ft incl land with today's costs. Don’t miss out.&#xD;

I have sold a property at 3300 Tyerman Pl in Cobble Hill on Jan 9, 2026. &lt;a href="https://peterwatts.ca/mylistings.html/listing.1013736-3300-tyerman-pl-cobble-hill-v8h-0b3.106851436"&gt;See details here&lt;/a&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&lt;p&gt;&#xD;
A remarkable value opportunity lies in wait for the astute buyer. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac with minimal traffic, (perfect for kids playing, safety and security) 3300 Tyerman is the perfect family location. A short walk to Cobble Hill Mountain for hiking and biking, 5 min drive to the Village, Lake and Parks in Shawnigan and less than 10 to Mill Bay for all your grocery shopping and essential amenities. With a full useable large acre and plenty of opportunities for future latent value, you wont find a better bang for the buck. A larger almost 3000 sq ft with 5 oversized Bedrooms, a significant Sundeck/Balcony out back, built in Shed, an Outbuilding for chickens or dogs, many new Blinds &amp; Windows, a Wood Stove and much more to offer. Priced considerably under assessed value at just $940,000! 3300 Tyerman offers an affordable rural lifestyle, without the big city price tag. Far enough, but close enough. The perfect priced family acreage home awaits.&#xD;
