A scenic and private 10-acre retreat perched above Kootenay Lake, this off-grid property blends comfort, self-sufficiency and future potential. Featuring a newly completed cabin and two bunkies, it is ideal as a recreational getaway, seasonal escape or year-round homestead. Over several years, this unique community has attracted like-minded owners seeking an off-grid lifestyle surrounded by nature. While many use their properties seasonally due to unplowed winter road access, several residents live here year-round, accessing the area by vehicle or snowmobile. The impressive setup includes a four-season 12' x 18' cabin with sleeping loft, two 13' x 8' bunkies, gravity-fed water, wood heat, propane on-demand hot water and DC wiring ready for a solar system, generator or portable power station and more. Quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design are evident throughout. Positioned at the top of the property to maximize privacy, sun exposure and stunning views, the cabin enjoys a peaceful setting surrounded by forest. A year-round creek along the north property line supplies gravity-fed water to the cabin. The lower portion of the land offers additional building sites with excellent potential for RVs, guest cabins or expanded recreational use. With no zoning restrictions, the property offers exceptional flexibility. Sold fully move-in ready, this is a rare opportunity to secure a turnkey off-grid retreat in one of the Kootenays’ most scenic settings. (id:2493)
