Imagine yourself here, where sweeping vistas of Howe Sound from Black Tusk all the way to the Gulf Islands and beyond are enjoyed from pretty much anywhere you look. This prized waterfront acreage, featured on several garden tours, showcases years of passion and reverence for the land. It is one of the most cherished gardens on Bowen Island - your own VanDusen Botanical Garden, if you will.
Unlike most vacant land that is for sale, a significant portion of the property consists of a network of paths that wind through a multitude of shrubs, unique trees, and perennials which are all deer resistant. An irrigation system, supported by stored water, delivers to 9 zones via ‘Irritrol’ automation. Extensive rock work by a master craftsman is both decorative and purposeful and helps to delineate spaces throughout the property. The Zen Garden with sculptures and standing stones provides for a wonderful meditative space. The outdoor dining area with views SouthEast to UBC and beyond is a fantastic space for al fresco dinner parties with friends and family. A lawn with an elegant bell tower invites games of croquet and boules.
A path leads down to the water where on the ebb tide a shingle beach and reef appear as if by magic. A cantilevered viewing platform is the perfect spot to view rafts of thousands of sea birds, humpback whales, orcas, seals and seal lions.
Easily accessed by a gently sloped driveway there is a logical, flat build site for a home, and lots of space for a secondary dwelling. A once in a lifetime opportunity is waiting for you.
