Lt 17 Ruxton Pl, Ruxton Island
Escape to the tranquility of Ruxton Island with this exceptional 1.57-acre off-grid property in the heart of the Gulf Islands. Thoughtfully designed for low-maintenance island living, the property features a newly constructed cabin built with durable hempcrete blocks, offering comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind for years to come. A newly installed driveway provides easy access to the property and leads to a level building site ideal for future expansion, gardens, or additional structures. Above, an elevated plateau offers a wonderful vantage point to capture ocean views and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. Located just minutes from Herring Bay, where moorage access is available, this property combines true island seclusion with remarkable accessibility—only a 10-minute boat ride from Boat Harbour Marina on Vancouver Island. Whether you're seeking a peaceful recreational retreat, a self-sufficient homestead, or a place to reconnect with nature, this property offers endless possibilities. Grow your own food, create your dream island getaway, or simply enjoy the slower pace of life that Ruxton Island is known for. Ruxton's close-knit community has worked hard to achieve FireSmart status, helping promote responsible stewardship and fire preparedness. Residents also enjoy access to the island's newer community building, which serves as a gathering place and houses important fire safety equipment. Here, nature takes center stage, the stresses of city life fade away, and every day feels a little more connected to what matters most. Items which can be included with the purchase are lumber mill, moorage bouy, 2 large bell tents, Hourson fishing boat, and Polaris ATV. Verify all information and measurements if important. Measurements are derived from BC Assessment and Matterport. (id:1945)
