About this home

An exceptional opportunity to acquire 20 acres of private, build-ready land in a highly desirable country setting. Positioned off Bay Road, this extraordinary property offers the scale, privacy, natural beauty, and flexibility to create a truly remarkable legacy estate, family compound, or curated collection of luxury residences. The front 5 acres are cleared, level, and ready for construction. The remaining 15 acres are mostly wooded with marketable timber, which can be kept as open space to benefit from the low property taxes or cleared for additional homesites. The property has been surveyed, with road and utility easements completed. Gentle north-facing terrain opens to expansive territorial views across North County and toward the Canadian Cascades, creating an exceptional backdrop for a private estate or high-end residential concept. Adding to the opportunity, the adjoining 15-acre parcel to the north (MLS 2588614) is also available. Acquiring both parcels would create an extraordinary 35-acre assemblage, offering the rare ability to establish a substantial private estate or family compound, or pursue a thoughtfully designed collection of luxury homesites. Acreage of this quality, scale, and setting is increasingly difficult to find. With its combination of privacy, panoramic views, build-ready land, mature timber, completed surveying and easements, and adjacent acreage available for expansion, this is a rare opportunity to create something truly exceptional.
