ATTENTION BUILDERS AND DEVELOPERS / Great opportunity to purchase and build on this DUPLEX ZONED WATERFRONT LOT in Sooke’s downtown core! Located on quiet and private no-thru road, this .46 acre panhandle lot slopes towards the water with approximately 70 feet of ocean frontage. Surrounded by high-end newer properties, this lot is ideally setup for a rancher with a walkout basement, or a 2-storey home to maximize your views. The sellers roughed in a switchback road when they purchased the lot to ensure easy beach access. Sewer and municipal water are both at the property line and the lot is located just steps to a waterfront park, community boardwalk, local restaurants, bakeries, shopping, public transportation and all other needed amenities. A spectacular site to build your dream home or a waterfront revenue property. Call your agent and schedule an appointment to walk the property. EXCELLENT DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY!

Kudos to the realtor for showing us the layout of the land for sale. So easy to do, but so many agents just don’t bother. I don’t know how sellers put up with such lack of enthusiasm.

[Victoria Watcher]

Yup.

It strikes me as so bizarre, how we only have one west coast community of consequence on the entire Island, that being Tofino/Ucluelet.

 

There is nothing else (I don't count Port Renfrew yet, we've got to give it another 50 years).

[Victoria Watcher]

True, interesting.

 

Something in this area might be nice:

Too wet maybe, and not easy to get to the west coast for most of VI? 

If there were a proper freeway built along the coast, but I don't see that ever happening, past PR.

[Mike K.]

Lots of vestiges of old communities, but nothing thriving. The areas are gorgeous, however.

I've visited many of the little communities on the west coast. They all tuck into the fjords and inlets for protection from rough seas and winds. But man, they're such beautiful places to visit. I'd have a vacation home out there, for sure, but housing is hard to come buy and land prices for large lots are quite high. There's no happy medium like vacation-focused properties in those communities likely because there are no services, but I'm sure there would be a market for 500 sq ft units, in townhome or small condo style.

Living in the woods is fantastic.

This one is real odd.

That 'architect's vision' is a standard, split-level 'BC box' from the 80's, with less windows, and just one roof slope.
