Lot 2 Dempsey Rd, Gabriola Island
Rare opportunities like this come along once in a generation. Perched at the highest point on Gabriola Island, this exceptional 26.7 acre estate offers a fully serviced, ready to build homesite with sweeping, unobstructed views across Northumberland Channel, the Gulf Islands, and out to the Olympic Peninsula. Set safely back from a dramatic 300 foot cliff, the cleared building site captures stunning vistas of sailboats, killer whales, and eagles riding the thermals, while the property itself is divided by Dempsey Road into two distinct sections - one offering gently sloped forest with potential sea views, and the other delivering the dramatic cliffside outlook with guaranteed privacy. The land is fully accessible on both sides, with a lower bench adding further potential. Adding significant value, an annual foreshore lease generates more income than the property taxes, while a 250 foot well, 200 amp service, septic system and cistern are already in place, allowing you to skip the usual development challenges and begin designing your dream home right away!
