PRIVATE LAKE! This 100 acre paradise with a newer home has its own 5 acre spring fed private lake. It was developed by a permaculture designer with the goal of achieving self-sufficiency & independence. The 2802 sqft home can be fully functional 'off-grid'. Its custom crafted kitchen & upstairs living room are must sees. XL, sunny south facing decks overlook fenced gardens, orchards & duck/chicken area with views to lake & mountains. The lake maintains a constant depth year round - it's great for swimming & has its own decks, cabin & sauna. The property is bordered on two sides by newly created Spike Road Park. On the Eastern side of the home is a man-made ‘Zen Island’ with deck, sauna & hot tub. There's horse stables with fenced pastures, merchantable timber, essential oil distillery, lots of covered storage & bonus 500 Empress tree plantation obtained through World Tree providing future revenue to new owner. This exceptional Vancouver Island retreat is a nature-centric model for future generations - available now. Foreign Buyer Ban Exempt
