Have you been searching for your own
Private Waterfront Estate,
and hoping to find that very most special location?
Then you will not want to miss this opportunity.
This 5 Acre parcel of Waterfront offers
approx 600' of Shoreline,
with access to World Class West Coast Fishing.
To come to this place drive West of Victoria and left onto Gillespie Road. At East Sooke Road turn right and right again to Anderson Cove Road. You will arrive at the end of a cul de sac. Directly ahead you will see a pretty, unassuming, private path.
This is the beginning of the pie shaped parcel of land. Stroll down this meandering road along the lofty banks of Pim Head as you absorb the views before you, behind you...all around you. The topography is dramatic and the vantage points, as well as building sites are many. Pim Head juts out into the SookeBasin, a protected body of water off the SookeHarbour, off the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The Town of Sooke lies across the water a little to the West and Victoria is 20 minutes to the East.
As you stand on any of the promontories you will be mesmerized not only by what you see, but by what you don't hear! The quiet is immediately noticeable, only interrupted by the breeze in the trees, an eagle, owl or swallow. The serenity and harmony with nature is profound.
Beneath you is the forest to the shores which offer up beaches to explore. The shoreline is varied. There is deep water moorage and access by stairs to the beach. Upon application with Front Desk,Government of B.C, a dock and foreshore lease can be applied for.
The Sooke Basin is a protected water body that is ideal for kayakers. The Goodrich Islands are about 100' off shore and a fun destination for the curious explorer. Various marinas are also an option for year round docking.
Anderson Cove is one of 3 entry points to Famous East Sooke Park. In your backyard, this west coast park has over 3500 acres of natural and protected coastal landscape and over 50km of trails. Petroglyphs are only one of the highlights on the trails. A Kermode 'Spirit' Bear was spotted here. In the fall you will see an amazing number of bird species as this is the last stop for migrating flocks on their way to the United States.
The Cottage Style Home on this property has an open layout with views from all the rooms to the distant Sooke Hills and water. The master bedroom is on the main floor. There are two bathrooms in the house and one in the guest cabin. There is also an outdoor shower! The upstairs bedroom has a loft and the soft ocean breeze flows through this home ever so gently.You can live here comfortably if you plan to build your dream home on another of the many building sites on the property.
The Shop is ample and any hobbyist or craftsman's dream. The building is separated into various rooms that at present house an Office, a Music Room, a Storage Room and yet another Craft Room.
The Guest Cabin is ever so sweet, in the middle of the garden and set a ways from the main house.
Overall, the property elicits a sense of peace and tranquility that is rare and to be treasured. The Value in this real estate is it's Location. The possible Added Value is the addition of a dock and the potential to subdivide the property. The municipal water main is near by and there is discussion with the Capital Regional District to run water down this street in the near future.
