152 acres on the shores of Read Island in Hoskyn Channel and just outside the entrance of Whiterock Pass. Approx. 3000ft of ocean frontage with a number of small bays along the rocky shoreline. Nicely treed throughout, the property was last logged about 40 years ago. Some areas are ready for harvesting now, and the seller can provide more information on the harvestable timber for those inquiring. At the centre of the shoreline is a private homestead, surrounded by this property. With the size of the property and the large amount of shoreline there is subdivision potential, and it could be divided into a variety of configurations (a number of freehold oceanfront lots, a bareland strata development with common property, two or three larger acreages, etc). Or it could be developed as a stunning oceanfront trophy property. Easy boat access to services and amenities located at Heriot Bay on Quadra Island or the larger centre of Campbell River on Vancouver Island.
