Description

Set on a generous 100 x 160 ft lot, this private and flat parcel offers the opportunity to secure space, privacy, and future potential. Surrounded by Crown land with no immediate neighbours, the property provides exceptional seclusion along with open views and a peaceful natural setting. The lot is un-zoned and benefits from no setback requirements, offering flexibility for future development. A drilled well producing approximately 12 GPM is already in place. An added bonus is the unique possibility to expand the land base through an Extension of Private Holdings, allowing a buyer to pursue the purchase of adjacent Crown parcels (subject to approval). Located near the edge of a provincial park and with convenient access via Burton Lake Road (including established rights-of-way), the property is well positioned for those who value outdoor recreation and privacy. While power is not currently serviced to the lot, a right-of-way exists to bring electricity to the property line from approximately 160 metres away. This is an ideal opportunity for someone seeking space, solitude, and long-term potential, while remaining within easy reach of Fernie, Koocanusa, and the recreational amenities of the South Country.

How this is calculated

Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.

Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.

Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.
