    Here is a rare opportunity to own a walk-on-waterfront acreage with southerly exposure and outstanding ocean and mountain views. The property has approximately 450 feet of walk on waterfront with a coarse sandy beach that spans a significant portion of the shoreline. The ten acres of forested land is moderately sloped for a short distance up from the beach enhancing the view potential for building sites before leveling out and continuing like that to the back of the property. A quad trail originating at the beach follows two sides of the property allowing for convenient points of entry and access to the rest of the subdivision and the wilderness beyond. Only a short boat ride from the Kelsey Bay Marina in Sayward, this property can only be accessed by boat or helicopter. More details
