The property
About this property.
Outside the foreign buyer ban area, this is a rare chance to own over 11 acres of pristine, private walk-on waterfront on Cortes Island, with 330 feet of walk-on beach and sweeping views across Desolation Sound. Nestled in the peaceful Squirrel Cove area, the property is a nature lover’s dream, surrounded by mature forest and abundant wildlife. The gently sloped lot offers an ideal building site near the shoreline, with additional options closer to the road. Watch whales pass by, or enjoy world-class kayaking, fishing, and oyster picking right at your doorstep. The Squirrel Cove General Store—just a short walk away—provides groceries, post office, liquor store, gas pumps, and a public dock with boat moorage. An original 1970s cabin, built from timber harvested on the property, is included in the sale and offered as-is. Whether you envision a private retreat, family legacy property, or island getaway, this is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to create something special. (id:67648)
