Two Lots with Fixer-Upper Cabin & Drilled Well - Savary Island, BC PROPERTY DETAILS Listing Number: 18030 Price: $149,000 SIZE Each lot is 0.29 acres, for a total of 0.58 acres (25,264.8 ft 2 ) DESCRIPTION This property consists of two 0.29 acre lots on Tennyson Road, Savary Island, each measuring approx 50 ft x 250 ft. Both lots face south and are substantially cleared and level. One lot is on the corner of Sutherland and Tennyson Roads and has a circular driveway from one road to the other. The adjacent lot has an 870 ft 2 cabin that is in disrepair. The cabin has good potential to be restored or temporarily used while you build on the other lot. Having two legal titles gives you options for construction of another cabin so one can be used for a guest cabin for family or friends. This could also be a group purchase or you could have the flexibility to sell one of the lots at any point in time. In addition, there is a quality drilled well and old septic field on site. There is a beautiful yew tree and an apple tree on the property and the Fire Department water tank is across the road. Access to the south beach is only 5 mins away via The Sutherland Steps, and the north beach is just 15 mins away via The Mermaid Trail.

DIRECTIONS Daily scheduled flights arrive in Powell River from the Vancouver South Terminal, a 25 minute flight. Ferry service is also available from Vancouver and Vancouver Island. Alberta visitors can travel via West Jet from Calgary to Comox-Courtenay and take a ferry directly to downtown Powell River.

There is a good government wharf on Savary Island and regularly scheduled, year-round water taxi service from Lund. AREA DATA Savary Island is a crescent-shaped island located in the Strait of Georgia 144 km (89 \ miles) northwest of Vancouver, British Columbia and 6 km (4 miles) west of Lund on the Sunshine Coast. This pearl of an island, which looks like it floated up from the South Seas, is known as the Hawaii of the North for its mild climate and miles of white sandy beaches. It is about 8 km (5 miles) long and averages just under 1 km (1/2 mile) wide. Low-lying Savary is ideally situated in the rain shadow between Vancouver Island and the Coastal Mountains and unlike most Gulf Islands, Savary runs east-west. The tides moving from the north and south of Georgia Strait meet just north of
Savary. The southern tide is warm and the waters move less, which results in generally warmer seas. This water flows over Savary s sun baked sandy shelf producing the warmest water north of Mexico. The Island has a public wharf and is accessible by float plane, boat, barge or water taxi from Lund. Since there are no campsites here, accommodation takes the form of cabin rental or Bed & Breakfast. The south shore has the strait winds so it has big rollers and attracts surfers. Savary Island is very safe - more park than wilderness. There are no bears, cougars, rats or raccoons on Savary. Deer are the only common large mammal, while mink and otters come ashore occasionally. There are many bald eagles and hummingbirds which summer here, while owls, woodpeckers and many migratory species frequent the island. As well as clams, there are oysters, mussels, crab and geoducks found on or near the beaches. RECREATION Savary Island is located on the doorstep to Desolation Sound. The surrounding area is renowned for boating, fishing, scuba diving, hiking, kayaking, sightseeing and an abundance of other outdoor activities. The warm waters surrounding the area teem with sea life. Ideal for swimming, scuba diving and feasting on your catch of the day of salmon, cod, prawns, crab, clams and oysters. Known internationally as the Dive Capital of Canada, the Upper Sunshine Coast was rated by Rodales Dive Magazine as the #1 Best Overall Dive Destination in the World for 2006. A predator-free dive habitat, the coastal waters boast a visibility range of up to 30 metres (98 feet). HISTORY Two centuries ago explorer George Vancouver observed Savary, with its white-sand beaches, as having beauty such as we have seldom enjoyed. Vancouver had two commanders, Galiano and Valdes, to dinner when passing by this island in June of 1792. He named it Savary s Island possibly for a French admiral, but nobody has been able to confirm Savary s identity.
