Beautiful views, southern and western exposures, 30-metre waterfall, and nature at your doorstep – this amazing opportunity provides potential to develop in new directions with your own vision.

Location: Hotham Sound, Jervis Inlet, 20 to 30 minutes or 15 km water access only from government dock in Egmont, BC on Sechelt Peninsula.

In the pristine waters of Granville Bay:  4.91-hectare foreshore Licence of Occupation, beach and deepwater growing areas, stocked and licensed for Pacific Oysters, manila and mahogany clams.

Adjacent .37-hectare upland Licence of Occupation:  includes 1500 sq. ft. Residence, 300 sq. ft Workshop, 700 sq. ft. Processing Plant with a 300 cu. ft. walk-in cooler.

Water licences for hydropower, fish ponds and domestic uses on year round Lappan Creek, 12 kW hydroelectric power plant with a 300 ft head.

In the equally pristine waters of Goliath Bay:  9.74 hectare foreshore Licence of Occupation, beach and deepwater growing areas, stocked and licensed for Pacific Oysters.

Includes two 25 ft aluminium work skiffs and miscellaneous equipment.  All licences, insurance and permits are in place and current.

Some potential areas for development include the natural shellfish seed aspects of Hotham sound, hydropower utilization, and intensive deepwater oyster culturing.  Close proximity to the popular Sunshine Coast could provide supplementary income through farm visits or other tourist related initiatives.

We have retired after developing and operating this family farm for 30 years. Although we are not currently operating the business, we will be available to provide new owners with advice if desired. All reasonable offers will be considered.
