Rarely does a property of this caliber come to market. Nestled on 11.53 acres of picturesque ALR land, this private rural oasis has been lovingly owned by the same family since 1913. The rancher-style main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, complemented by a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage. Thoughtful updates include a newer roof, updated electrical, heat exchanger HVAC system, and beautiful oak floors. Approximately 7 acres are in pasture, with Menzies Creek bordering the property. Outbuildings include a classic barn with hay loft and a 4-bay implement shed/carport, providing excellent functionality for hobby farming or agricultural pursuits. Enjoy southern exposure, mature perennial gardens, abundant wildlife, and complete privacy, all just 3 minutes from downtown Duncan and 5 minutes from the Cowichan Valley Trail. A truly special opportunity to own a legacy property in the heart of the Cowichan Valley.
