Residential acreage in Port Clements. Port, as the community is known, is a village of approx. 340 people centrally located on Graham Island, the largest island in Haida Gwaii on BC’s west coast. The community offers most amenities and services, as well as government dock and moorage facilities. It is ideally placed as a gateway to the varied recreational opportunities offered by Haida Gwaii.
This 4.87 acre undeveloped property offers a rural lifestyle within walking distance to town. It is located on the boundary of the village of Port Clements on Highway 16 and just a couple blocks from the ocean.
It is a level property, with nicely sized cedar as well as alder and other evergreens throughout. Although there is typical undergrowth of salmon berry, ferns and other native flora, the property is mostly walkable. There may be some timber value although this would have to be investigated by a new owner.
Tingley Brook runs through the property and there is a water license for domestic water from the brook. BC Hydro power poles run along Highway 16 as well as near the back of the property towards Port Clements, providing several access points to bring power onto the property.
An old homestead, now gone, reportedly used a shallow well and a septic system. These would need to be identified and qualified by an interested buyer. There were two driveways at different times for the property, one crossed from Mallard St on the Port Clements side of the property and one entered from Highway 16 (known locally as Dyson Rd).
The zoning permits residential, agriculture and home business use, and accessory buildings are allowed as well as one main residence.
Access to Haida Gwaii is by ferry from Prince Rupert on the BC mainland, by air from Vancouver to Sandspit or by air from Prince Rupert to Sandspit. Chartering of private planes or boats is also an option.
