About this home

First time offered for sale in nearly 60 years! A rare opportunity to acquire 12.90 acres in a convenient central island location, just a short walk to the schools and community bus routes. Approximately 3 acres of usable land that features established fruit trees including apple, plum, pear, apricot and cherry trees, along with kiwi vines. Additional features include a year-round pond, pottery studio, and various sheds and outbuildings. The property has been in the same family for generations and includes an older 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage in need of TLC. Recent upgrades to the property include an improved water system in 2025 and an upgraded solar power system in 2026. Beyond the lower acreage, the property slopes upward to higher elevations, where an upper-level area that offers potential for a future homesite. With its substantial acreage, established plantings, existing infrastructure, and opportunities for future development, this is an appealing offering for buyers looking to establish their own island property. The value here is in the land and the possibilities it presents. (id:51075)
