At the bottom slopes of the Beaufort mountains sits a 100-acre parcel with a private lake. This newer 2800 square foot home was designed to operate either on or off-grid with built in redundancies for power, heating and water. The home has a custom crafted kitchen, large family room, gym area, multiple bedrooms, a studio, wrap around deck, and exceptional views. The property was designed based on permaculture principles providing sustainable options to grow food and animals. There are numerous facilities and resources including: fenced gardens and orchards, paddocks for animals, merchantable timber and a tree plantation. What makes this property unique is the private five acre spring-fed lake providing peace and tranquility to swim, canoe or enjoy the sauna on the large deck at the lake. To take advantage of the many plants that grow on the property, an essential oil distillery was recently added on. This unique offering is a must see for anyone that wants independence, privacy, peaceful settings. The idyllic property is bordered on two sides by newly created Spike Road Park. Come and see what living off-grid on Vancouver Island with all the serenity that can be imagined. Foreign Buyer Ban Exempt
