Description
Two homes in desirable Cedar on 34 acres with lakefront on Holden Lake and direct access to Hemer Provincial Park & Morden Colliery Trail. The homes have separate addresses at opposite ends of the property, providing exceptional privacy and tranquility. On the Rugg Rd side, a 2-bed + den, 1.5-bath log home built with quality craftsmanship features hardwood floors, a spacious open-plan living area, and a large deck overlooking the lake. A private dock provides easy access for paddling, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water while taking in serene lake views. Across the property on the Hemer Rd side, a 4-bed, 2-bath home with a self-contained suite is surrounded by fenced pasture, irrigated gardens, mature forest and fruit trees, directly adjacent to the provincial park, perfect for hiking, riding, or exploring nature. The Hemer Rd side also includes a barn, large workshop, implement shed, geodome, and RV hookups with power and water, plus a separate bath/shower building, well, pond, seasonal stream, and upgraded power throughout. The land combines open pasture and forested areas, creating versatile spaces for gardening, raising animals, or enjoying outdoor recreation year-round. With irrigated gardens, fruit trees, including heritage apples, gently rolling terrain, and a farm stand right at the park entrance, the property is ideal for hobby farming, eco-tourism or rental income, self-sustainable living, or creating a private estate with ample space for family, friends, or guests. At the end of a dead-end road beside a 300-acre park, with farm status and reduced taxes, domestic water rights to the lake, and one house permitted to be renovated or replaced with your 5,000+ sq ft dream home, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly private, versatile and magical estate on Vancouver Island, offering endless possibilities for lifestyle, farming, recreation, and peaceful country living, just minutes from Nanaimo by foot, horse, bike, or car. Perfect for two families!
