$1,595,000 · Waterfront acreage with docks, boathouse, marine way, unfinished house

1.2 acre low bank waterfront property with 60 year old grandfathered foreshore lease, 2.3 acres in total, with two commercial grade, 50 foot concrete docks, marine ways, 36X50 foot boathouse with new aluminum roof and heated tool room. The views from the house are absolutely outstanding facing Drew Harbour, Rebecca Spit, and the coastal mountains in the distance. The major negative feature is that the house is unfinished. It could be completed into a very large, possibly multifamily complex, or someone with means seeking a luxury personal waterfront place with docks in paradise might start over on the house. In the meantime, we have been able to live there since 1996 in the completed section. Unfortunately, illness and death in the family led to the lack of completion. The separate three car garage, large waterfront facing shop with tools and downstairs family room with large pool table are a bonus. The property is on Quadra Island facing Rebecca Spit marine park and the best cruising grounds in Canada including Desolation Sound. It is not an "off the grid" property. It has 400 amp electrical service, excellent water, septic system, large paved driveway, and is walking distance to groceries, post office, liquor store, restaurant, pub, hotel, marinas, and a fuel dock. A 12 minute ferry ride to Campbell River runs every 30 minutes. It should be mentioned that a big advantage of the property is that the owners can drive to the foot of the dock or doors of the boathouse with abundant parking space at the waterfront. No walking down stairs with groceries or tools in your arms! It should be emphasized that the foreshore development is no longer reproducible given the dredging and cribbing required to produce an all tide dock let aone the creation of a stone breakwater. The cribbing and docks and boat house are in very good condition. The latter has a new aluminum roof in 2023. The depth at center slip of the dock at the very lowest of tide still exceeds seven feet 6 inchs. Boats with beams up to 17 feet and lengths up to 55 feet can easily tie up in the center slip and cross tie. Death in the family of one of the co-owners and age of the remaining owners is leading to this sale. This ad is placed by the owner. The property is also listed at the same price with Colliers Unique Properties in Vancouver. The owner is available to show the property by appointment or you can deal with the Realtor, Alan Johnson.
