Description

Half acre oceanfront lot overlooking beautiful, gentle Herring Bay on the desirable northwest corner of Ruxton Island just outside of Nanaimo. This high bank VIEW lot perches safely atop a narrow promontory that extends northward like the head of a dragon, flanked by fingers of rock that become sandy havens at lower tides. Herring Bay has lots of moorage, sandstone formations, and a beach at the south end with access to the island's system of "roads". There is plenty of room to build on this lot: The topography starts high at the road, drops down a short stone bank to a shallow protected depression, then rises again slightly to a wide shelf above the water. A wooden staircase would be ideal. There is oak and fir and arbutus, salal berries, innumerable rock plants and sweet smelling mosses. A community well is nearby. Ruxton Island is completely off-grid with no ferry service, making it one of the last great peaceful undeveloped islands - though it's just 20km from downtown Nanaimo.Show Description
