Description

Experience the unmatched feeling of peaceful, sanctuary-like isolation high atop Mt. Matheson. Standing on Lot 12’s dramatic rock outcropping pinnacle, your entire outlook on life transforms into that of a high-country forest lookout ranger—surrounded by a soaring tree canopy, crisp mountain air, and breathtaking, endless 360-degree panoramas. Watch magnificent golden sunsets paint the tranquil waters of the Sooke Basin, take in sweeping, untouched forestscapes, and gaze across the Salish Sea to the majestic, snow-capped Olympic Mountain range. Tucked quietly at the very end of an exclusive cul-de-sac and backing directly onto the pristine wilderness of Roche Cove Regional Park, this sprawling 1.8-acre parcel sits in an established neighborhood of high-end, architectural luxury homes. The lot remains completely untouched and in its natural, pristine state—a true blank canvas awaiting your bold architectural vision. Offering a rare combination of high-altitude serenity and practical convenience, this property stands out dramatically from typical raw land. Unlike remote acreage requiring expensive well-drilling and complex septic systems, this site comes fully serviced with municipal water and sewer connections brought right to the property line—delivering substantial upfront cost savings and simplifying your development plans significantly. Whether you choose to collaborate with a premier local builder to design a custom West Coast showcase residence or purchase the land to hold for the future, this extraordinary setting offers total privacy and peaceful isolation without sacrificing modern convenience. You are situated just minutes from extensive regional hiking and biking trail networks, serene mountain lakes, and local launches for marine adventures. A rare high-altitude West Coast retreat ready for your custom home design. (id:63159)
