Seasonal creeks, ponds, some cleared, some forested, natural meadow areas, amazing views of ocean, islands, mountains (Lower Mainland mountains, Mt. Baker, Mt. Rainier, Olympic Mountains…an inspirational panoramic vista!),

Several terrific building sites…choose your special one. Access off Anna’s Drive for one parcel, and access off Musgrave Road for another. Park reserve on one boundary line, and an area of very fine homes (all on acreages), on another.

Excellent sun exposures (e/s/w), privacy, quiet — truly unique property anywhere, and it just so happens to be on special Salt Spring Island!

Beautiful land, located close to St Mary Lake, and offering potential for lake glimpses. Access to lake is located nearby.

Property features an orchard, vegetable garden area, and flower gardens — just needs some TLC to bring this back to its former glory.

Property is very sunny (s/sw/w), private & quiet. Property is accessed via one road (Howard) and has frontage on a second (Lang’s)– (there is a storage space there, as owners once sold their garden produce at this part of the land). A mix of meadow and forest, a trail links the two roads on the property.

Property is a gem, offering true rural charm! It awaits your ideas, so see Li today & bring your architect!

The Fulford Valley/Burgoyne Valley are at the same latitude as the Loire Valley in France.    The micro-climate enjoyed by Salt Spring Island is known as “cool Mediterranean”.

Salt Spring features as an artistic haven, with painters, writers, musicians, fabric artists, potters, sculptors, actors, dancers all calling this Island beauty “home”.    The slow food movement is also alive and well on amazing Salt Spring Island: a sustainable farm ethic is a part of the Island culture.    Farmers markets are an almost year round feature of our temperate climate zone.

The Island also offers all services/amenities required in our 21st Century lives, and yet also enjoys that wonderful sense of being “apart”.    Close to major centres (Vancouver, Victoria, Seattle), and with a year round lifestyle…easy to do daytrips to other regions, and yet not necessary to leave the Island unless one wishes to.    Hospital, three elementary schools, a middle and a state of the art senior school, seniors activities, a growing digital network of the tech culture, the voice of the artist well represented, a sense of sanctuary without being isolated…it is a premier location for either a seasonal or a year round experience.

The Garry Oak Vineyard acreage offers an alluring retirement opportunity…be the hands on person you’ve always dreamed of being, or retain the qualified helpers in the vineyard.   Charming cottage home for these accomplished helpers…plus auxiliary buildings dedicated to the wine-making.

Always dreamed of France or Italy?    Here’s the delectable reality to that dream…the stability and the innovative and the creative Canadian lifestyle awaits your pleasure on very special Salt Spring Island!

Here is your dramatic and warm hued home, with exceptional views to rest the soul…here is the detached garage for your classic cars…here is the privacy and the calm that enfolds one…here is the interest to pique one’s mind, to open a door to a creative experience…call me, and let’s view this gem together, very soon.

Please, do not disturb owners or vineyard staff…appointments to view are essential.    24 hour notice requested.
