LOT Strathcona Heights Rd #A, Cowichan Valley, BC V8H 2A9

Picture a forested hillside acreage above Shawnigan Lake, with tall evergreens all around and the quiet of the countryside settling in. This 4.99 acre rural parcel is rectangular and slopes up the hill, with views of the lake, the mountains and the valley, and a drilled well already in place. It's heavily treed, with a small grassy clearing among the evergreens and a gravel lane winding up through the woods. The road in is paved. There is no septic system, and the land is steep in places, so it's worth a close look with your own plans in mind. The zone description is Rural Residential, which gives you a starting point for checking what's possible with the regional district. Outside the property, Baldy Mountain's hiking trails are close by, and the lake is a short drive away for swimming, paddling and lazy afternoons on the water. The village has local shops, cafés and everyday amenities, so you're never far from a coffee or a few groceries.
