Property description
Sitting serenely in the heart of the Cowichan Valley, this stunning, flat, fully usable 7.86 acre property will exceed the equestrian's expectations. It's one of the very few fully-equipped, non-commercial horse properties in the Cowichan Valley - offering 2 regulation sized arenas (one covered), with high quality arena bases, sprinkler systems, and high efficiency lighting. The 3-stall barn (with individual walk-outs & grazing pastures) includes a hayloft & tack room with heat & hot water. And it still has enough pasture space for other uses. The 30x75ft veggie garden, fruit trees/grapevines produce nearly everything you need for a self-sustaining lifestyle, & enough to sell on a roadside stand. A greenhouse, workshop & wood barn round out the amenities. The two (attached) homes offer excellent flexibility for multi-gen families, farmworkers or rentals (including short-term). Enjoy dining alfresco in one of the gardens, sip tea by the fish pond & watch incredible sunrises and sunsets.Offered at $2,300,000 CDN ($1,600,000 USD approx)
