A rare and remarkable offering, this nearly 30-acre private retreat near Mt. Maxwell presents an extraordinary opportunity to craft your ideal West Coast lifestyle. Currently home to a spacious workshop, a charming cottage, and a separate studio, the property offers an abundance of potential. The existing workshop holds a current occupancy permit, providing flexible options, to retain as a functional living space, or remove the occupancy designation and build the custom home you've always envisioned. The cottage and studio are quintessentially West Coast in character having warm, soulful spaces. The detached timber-frame studio spans 400 sq. ft. with a loft, and has been updated with a new roof (2024) and a heat pump (2023). A separate driveway services the prime building site, where select clearing could open up stunning ocean views overlooking Active Pass. The land itself features two seasonal ponds, extensive established gardens, and bountiful mature fruit trees. The property currently benefits from a managed forest land designation, resulting in notably low property taxes. Whether you're dreaming of a private estate, a creative sanctuary, or a working rural retreat, this property is ready to meet you there!
