Some properties invite you to build a house. This one invites you to design a lifestyle. On a private 1-acre lot in one of the Alberni Valley’s most desirable settings, the foundation for something special is already here: a quiet rural feel, a natural border of mature trees, and direct access to the outdoors without giving up the convenience of town. The property is wrapped in a horseshoe of greenery, creating a sense of privacy from the moment you arrive and offering a beautiful natural backdrop for the home you imagine next. What makes this parcel especially compelling is the flexibility it offers. RA3 zoning allows room to consider a home designed for multi-generational living, rental income, guest space, or future adaptability, with options that may include a secondary suite within the primary residence or a detached accessory dwelling unit. Buyers should confirm their intended plans with the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District. For those who value time outside, the setting is hard to match. The property backs onto the Log Train Trail, a 25-kilometre multi-use route along the Beaufort Range where mornings can begin with a walk, weekends can include a bike ride, and equestrian use is part of the trail’s appeal. It gives the property a sense of connection to the landscape that is difficult to recreate. Daily life remains practical, too. Highway 4 is easily accessible, and Pacific Rim Shopping Centre is only a 3-minute drive away, placing groceries, errands, and amenities close at hand while still allowing you to return home to a quieter pace. Key groundwork has already been completed. Water is to the lot, septic approval is in place, and the seller will have 200 amp power installed to the property, giving the next owner a valuable head start. A rare combination of privacy, usable flexibility, trail access, and proximity to town, this is land with a clear sense of place and a strong beginning already in motion.
