Paddy’s Point Oceanfront Sold!
Maple Bay, on Vancouver Island, is like an east coast seaside atmosphere, yet enjoys the drama of the west coast. With year round moorage, and like a Gulf Island, but without the extra ferry, it has enjoyed an appeal for several years.
Wonderful lowbank oceanfront point of land, known to sailors as “Paddy’s Point”, located right at the opening of Maple Bay itself, enjoys 2000+ ft of oceanfront, mostly “low bank”, with year round moorage potential at the dock.
Exposures are east, south, & west, and provide sunrises & sunsets year round, with wrap-around views.
There is a pretty 1912 era Edwardian cottage plus a boathouse (with a suite above), on the property. This would make an excellent summer getaway for the present, and develop your dream property later.
The property is almost 10 acres and is a mix of meadow, & pristine coastal forest, consisting of magical Cedar groves, Fir, Hemlock, Maple, Alder, & majestic stands of mature Arbutus. Walk the mossy trails created in the 1920′s & 1930′s. This is totally unspoiled land! With arable potential, one can be totally self-sufficient, here.
This property has been in the same family since 1900, and is wonderfully unspoiled. It’s very rare to find such a property, anywhere, and this one enjoys all the allure of Southern Vancouver Island’s microclimate. An easy commute to Victoria from here!
Totally irreplaceable & truly a rare commodity!
Note: Maple Bay offers a “Gulf Island” ambiance, without the necessity of a ferry, and it is one of those protected moorage enclaves coveted by a boater. The property has a private road access, and is just minutes by boat from either the Maple Bay Yacht Club or the Maple Bay marina. Your choice! This is true estate style property. See Li for all appointments to view (24 hr. notice preferred).
