$1,100,000 CANADIAN 167 acres of oceanfront
An expansive oceanfront acreage located in the central Desolation Sound region. The property is located on the east side of Cortes Island, the location provides 180° views south toward Desolation Sound, east towards Teakerne Arm and northwest beyond Calm Channel towards Stuart Island at the entrance of Bute Inlet.
	167 acres with over ¾'s of a mile of low bank easy access oceanfront - the beach is a mix of small rock gravel and sand. The property has been logged with a strip of trees remaining along the shoreline plus a couple of other large treed areas close to the shore and at higher elevations. Topography is mixed, fairly level, and friendly towards the ocean side portion - the rear of the property climbs to an elevation of approximately 900 feet.
A good quality gravel road parallels the shoreline - originating at the waterfront on the south end where there is a good landing suitable for loading and offloading equipment and materials. This road parallels the shoreline, a good distance back from the shore across the lower portion of the property and provides relatively easy access throughout the lower portion of the acreage and to any one of a number of building sites along the shoreline.
	This is one of only 2 private properties on the Lewis Channel side of Cortes Island. This is a boat access only property with relatively quick easy access to four locations, some of which provide road links, ferry access and the availability of services such as fuel and general store.
Approximately 5 miles away In Squirrel Cove there is a general store with fuel sales, post office, and road access with ferry connections to Quadra Island and the full service community of Campbell River on Vancouver Island. Refuge Cove on West Redonda Island is also within the same distance - there you will find a general store, fuel sales, and a post office. Access to and from the Sunshine Coast and the communities of Lund and Powell River are approximately 10 and 14 miles respectively south east of the property.
	This central location provides easy access to a popular marine recreational area that offers a variety of activities for the outdoor enthusiasts. Desolation Sound is well known by the yachting and sailing community and a favourite location for kayakers and divers. There is an abundance of wonderful things to enjoy throughout this region; some of which is the wide variety of wildlife from marine mammals to bald eagles to mainland grizzly bears as well as an abundance of clams, oysters, and prawns and excellent fishing opportunities for salt and freshwater fishermen, as access to the mainland inlets is at your doorstep.
