Description
In the southeast corner of BC, where mountain ranges converge and Kootenay Lake opens out in full, this 4.1 acre parcel offers a rare opportunity to secure meaningful private waterfront—approximately 1,200 feet of pristine shoreline set within a landscape defined by scale, quiet, and possibility. Cradled by the Kootenay Rockies and Selkirk Mountains to the east, and the Monashee and Purcell Mountains to the west, the setting is both expansive and deeply private. A true mecca for outdoor enthusiasts, the Kootenay region invites you to lose yourself in the surrounding wilderness - hiking, mountain biking, skiing, fishing, and river rafting all within reach. Zoned Country Residential, the property offers a wide array of lifestyle and development opportunities . A septic tank & field are already in place, along with an access road leading to a pristine, private beach. As vacant land, this offering is not subject to the Foreign Buyer Ban. Far enough removed to function as a true sanctuary, yet close enough to remain connected to the character of the region, enjoy Nelson’s historic charm and vibrant arts scene approximately 1.5 hours to the west, Creston 45 minutes south, golf alongside a glacial river in Cranbrook 2 hours east, or unwind at Ainsworth Hot Springs to the north. Whether held as a private waterfront sanctuary, developed into a seasonal escape, or positioned for future use, this is an increasingly rare opportunity to own private shoreline in one of British Columbia’s most compelling natural settings.

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
