Lot 1 Owen Bay, Sonora Island

Oceanfront property on the eastern shore of Owen Bay, Sonora Island, offering a licensed dock, cleared building site and driveway, domestic water, easy access and zoning that permits two dwellings. The medium bank 350ft shoreline is attractive rock bluff and treed, with a small bench that could potentially accommodate a small building. The property slopes upwards, with a bench just above the middle of the property where a large area has been recently cleared for a building site. A shallow dug well provides domestic water and is situated at the building site for ease of development. The property is nicely treed outside of the cleared areas, offering good privacy and abundant natural beauty. There are two options for access to the property. From the dock at the shoreline, there is a trail which leads to the driveway which starts about a third of the way up the property and winds its way to the building site. The trail from the dock to the driveway is only accessible on foot, and is quite steep, but short. Future improvements to this trail would increase accessibility to the dock. There is a registered easement for low bank easy access to and from the ocean at lot 3. This access area has been improved with a reinforced shoreline. From this spot an easement road runs through Lots 2 and 3, providing access to the middle portion of Lot 1. This access is wide enough to accommodate a vehicle. Lot 1 also benefits from licensed private moorage at the oceanfront, with a wooden dock and 50x4ft aluminum ramp affixed in place to the shoreline. This property offers a variety of options and uses. It would make a great summer camping getaway spot for family and friends, a secluded recreational retreat, a group purchase, or develop it into a substantial coastal homestead. (id:1945)
