Description

Tucked away in the peaceful community of Shoreacres, this exceptional 34 acre riverfront property offers a rare opportunity to own a truly special piece of the Kootenays. With almost 1 kilometre of frontage along the crystal clear Slocan River, the property combines privacy, natural beauty, and incredible potential in one remarkable package. A beautiful blend of open meadows, mature forest, fertile land, and elevated terraces overlooking the river creates a landscape that is as functional as it is breathtaking. Whether you're dreaming of a private estate, a working homestead, or the ultimate recreational retreat, there is room here to bring that vision to life. Spend your days swimming, fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the sights and sounds of the river from your own backyard. Valuable water rights, rich soil, and excellent sun exposure provide outstanding opportunities for gardening, farming, and self-sufficient living. Zoned R2I, the property also offers subdivision potential into one hectare parcels, creating exciting possibilities for future development or long term investment. Properties offering this combination of acreage, river frontage, sunshine, and flexibility are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're looking to build your dream lifestyle, create a family legacy property, or explore future development opportunities, this is a rare chance to own one of the Slocan Valley's most unique waterfront offerings.
