The waterfront
Inside the home
This is a land purchase, not a house purchase. The 52 acres come as two parcels — a roughly 4-acre road-fronting lot and a 48-acre back parcel reached by a trail along its edge. The existing cabin is a bare-bones camp structure: exposed framing, vapour barrier walls, a wood stove, and no plumbing. It functions as a gear shed, nothing more. The land itself is the asset. Mixed hardwood and conifer forest, multiple ponds and active streams, and an adjacent nature preserve that can never be built on. Howdenvale beach and boat launch are close, but water access is public, not private to this property. Buyers should go in understanding this is raw acreage with a rough cabin. Wetlands are extensive and will affect where a future structure can be permitted. Due diligence on buildable area is essential before committing.

- Multiple natural water features including ponds and streams on the land
