*** For more information, please click Brochure button. *** Escape to the Sayward Valley — a secluded, park-like 1.45-acre retreat on Vancouver Island's North Island, tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end street and bordered by a 100-acre nature reserve that guarantees privacy no future development can ever touch. The Salmon River runs just 100m from your door, where you can canoe alongside spawning salmon, and the region's four-season playground — fishing, hunting, kayaking, boating, skiing, snowmobiling, golfing, hiking and camping — is all within easy reach. This is a rare property built to work multiple ways. A newly renovated bachelor suite with views of Mt. H'Kusam is comfortable, move-in ready living, and three fully serviced trailer pads add income potential of up to $2,250/month. Prefer to build your dream home instead? A second septic system and water service are already in place, giving you room to construct while still living in — or renting out — the existing suite. The land itself is built for flexibility: dual street access opens up options for layout and future development, the drilled well delivers an impressive 12 gallons per minute, and free-draining soil with sunny southern exposure make two garden beds ready for a food forest. On-grid 200A power keeps things simple, and TELUS fibre optic and Starlink service is available in the area, so remote work is very much on the table. Add in low property taxes (approx. $300/year) and a small forest of mature trees, and you have a genuinely rare package. Whether you make the scenic drive up-island with a BC Ferries crossing, or fly into Campbell River, this property is closer than it feels — and worlds away from the city once you arrive. (id:44056)
