Water..Water..everywhere! The most critical component of any acreage is here in spades! Windermere creek flows right through this property. And the owners have made full use of it by developing the land into a pastoral parkland retreat. Elk, deer and a host of other birds and animals find haven here so if you are a nature lover this one is for you! The views are simply spectacular in all directions from Chisel Mountain and the Fairmont range to the south, Swansea Mountain to the east and Slade Mountain in the majestic Purcells to the west. With both domestic and irrigation water licenses in place and irrigation lines already installed the property would be ideal for a hobby or production farm. The current owners have enjoyed it for years as there summer retreat complete with 2 cabins and a tipi that they can accommodate up to 12 with. They also have a large gorgeous garden which is extremely productive because of the alluvial fan soil. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the finest pieces of land in the Columbia Valley so don't delay or this one will be long gone!

About
Before we work together you would probably like to know something about me. With my two girls pursuing their respective careers in Vancouver and Copenhagen, I now pursue my three other passions in life: golf, guitar and real estate.
Yes, real estate really is a passion for me. I have been involved in all aspects of it for over 40 years now and I still love it. Since graduating with a Commerce degree from University of Alberta in 1977, I spent 5 years as a commercial REALTOR in Edmonton, followed by 10 years of commercial real estate acquisitions and dispositions in Phoenix Arizona. In 1991, I returned to Invermere, my childhood summer home, where I have focused on residential real estate for the past 27 years.
Throughout my career I have invested in all aspects of real estate including developing a shopping centre, building spec homes and buying land and buildings for long term investments. I have had the opportunity to work with a wide-range of clients, matching properties to families, passionate entrepreneurs like Kicking Horse Coffee, and even some of my hockey heroes.
While in Invermere, I started the Royal LePage Rockies West Realty firm which grew from 2 people to 20 in the course of 12 years. Along the way I achieved a goal that most would say was impossible: I produced a large enough volume of sales to become listed in the top 1% for Royal LePage nationally in 2006. In 2007, I sold the company and went to work for Coldwell Banker Windermere Valley Realty in 2009 and ultimately bought that company in 2012. With it just being my sole proprietor business I have more time to pursue my passions and provide more personalized service for my many clients. I hope that you can become one of them in the near future.
Looking forward to meeting you!
