Beautiful Oceanfront Lot on South Pender Island
9878 Canal Road, South Pender Island, BC, Canada

This exceptional one-acre lot is one of the last remaining parcels of the Wilfred Walker homestead. Subdivided off in 2009, this North-facing lot has a magnificent view of Plumper Sound and Saturna Island to the West and North, and the San Juan Islands and Mount Baker, Washington State, to the East.

The partially-cleared property is wooded with Douglas and Grand Fir and Western Red Cedar, with an understory of Salal, ferns and Oregon grape. Sloping from Canal Road to the ocean, the lot is an ideal building site, partially screened by land contours and forest, but providing an unobstructed waterfront view regardless of your chosen house site.

On the high side of the property, a 600ft deep artesian well provides clear, potable water. Across the road is undeveloped family managed forest land, with sheer cliffs precluding any housing except on the waterfront. The oceanfront edge of the property drops steeply to a rocky beach, strewn with oysters and washed by cold, clear currents. While a private beach access could be constructed on this slope, it currently provides privacy from hikers, kayakers and other users of the public waterfront.

The nearest public beach access is two properties and about 150 yards away to the East. This is also the start of the William Walker hiking trail, which follows the perimeter of the Walker family-managed forest lands and joins with the Mount Norman Park system.
