Description
Welcome to your private garden paradise on southern Lasqueti Island. This enchanting 16.3-acre off-grid property offers fertile soil, abundant water resources, and a character-filled country home, complete with a workshop and woodshed.
Inside, the oversized kitchen feels like something from a novel, featuring a walk-in pantry, large garden-view windows, a Moffat gas stove, and a super-efficient Bavarian woodstove with porcelain-coated iron tiles. The main living area is bright and inviting with a wood-burning fireplace and plenty of space for entertaining or enjoying quiet moments in nature.
The main floor bath boasts a deep soaker tub, separate shower, and a unique boiler system connected to a wood stove with propane backup for hot water. Upstairs, you’ll find spacious bedrooms, a cozy den, and even a secret passageway.
Step outside to a large, covered porch overlooking mature gardens, fruit trees, and an area for a generous vegetable plot, all connected by winding pathways. A stream runs through the property, feeding a large pond that supplies irrigation to the gardens, with vehicle access around the pond and lower garden. A 215’ drilled well (30 GPM) provides an exceptional supply of fresh drinking water—truly rare for Lasqueti Island.
Squitty Bay Provincial Park and beach access are just a short drive away, making this the perfect retreat for those seeking an authentic off-grid lifestyle in a magical setting.
