A fully forested 87 acre property in Evans Bay, on Read Island, ready for development. Evans Bay sits at the centre of Read Island from the south-eastern side and is easily accessed by boat from Heriot Bay on Quadra Island via Sutil Channel. With approximately 3290ft of oceanfront, this property encompasses two small bays within Evans Bay, at the upper end of the waterway, as well as a portion of the peninsula between the two bays. The two bays offer some walk-on oceanfront while much of the rest of the shoreline is typical west coast rock, with trees overhanging right to the water’s edge. The balance of the property sits to the north of these two bays and is accessible from the public internal roads that transect much of Read Island’s interior. The property benefits from sunny southern exposure. The portion of land on the peninsula rises to a central height of approximately 100 metres, while the rest of the property rises more gradually from the water to the north-west corner. The larger bay on the west side, in the main top arm of Evans Bay, has an island centred in the bay and above that the bay goes dry at low tide. The smaller arm along the southern shoreline is a picturesque location with shallow water. There are anchors for a dock/barge landing at the southernmost point of land below the smaller bay, which could provide deep water moorage and access to old internal logging roads which provide some access throughout the acreage. Nicely forested with a mix of evergreens and deciduous trees, this property was logged about 40 years ago and currently has some harvestable timber on it. The seller can provide more detailed information on this to serious buyers. Within the current zoning this property could be subdivided into two parcels; allowing for a family purchase or for someone to purchase and keep one parcel for personal use while selling off the remaining parcel.
