1050 Depot Road, Squamish, BC, Canada
- Status: Sold
- Type: Development Land
Description
The subject site is one of the last big parcels of land in the world-renowned bald eagle viewing capital of the world, banking the famous Squamish River and within a few minute drive of downtown Squamish.
The formerly small town of Squamish has over the last few years become one of BC’s fastest growing towns and has recently been recognized as having the highest price increase in home prices in Metro Vancouver in 2020/2021. Currently zoned as AGRI-3 this 78.8 acre total sized parcel currently allows agricultural production as well as encompassing horse stables, kennels and pet daycare, and of course a dwelling unit as well as accessory buildings, and also allows accessory retail of produce or products grown on the site. Although currently zoned as agricultural, this parcel is not within the constrains of the ALR and therefore has some potential to be rezoned to allow some form of housing or other perhaps
recreational uses.
Accessed by its own bridge which allows for restricted access, this impressive parcel could potentially be used for a very wide variety of uses once rezoned, including an exclusive gated community, or indeed a legacy estate.
