This 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom single family in Balfour offers 1,022 sqft of living area on a 3.97 ac lot. Built in 1957, 1 storey. The property has lot dimensions of 3.97. The home features electric heating.
Escape to an unparalleled waterfront lifestyle on the West Arm of Kootenay Lake. Nestled in a peaceful, deeply private setting just minutes from Nelson, this rare property offers an incredible combination of natural beauty and investment flexibility. Comprising a flat 3.97 acres of majestic old-growth cedar forest across two separate titled parcels, the estate is beautifully shrouded in a canopy of mature trees, creating absolute privacy. Boasting an impressive 75 meters (246 feet) of premium Kootenay Lake frontage, the property features a private wharf and coveted foreshore rights on Lot 2. An existing 1957 home sits on the property, offering an incredible strategic advantage: it could be potentially used to grandfather the location of a new lakefront build right near the water's edge, while utilizing the existing well and septic system. Because this offering includes two distinct titles, it presents an ideal opportunity for two families to purchase separate shares of paradise. The location perfectly balances total seclusion with local convenience. You are moments from Red Fish Elementary, charming pubs, and the Balfour general store, with the ferry just 10 minutes away. Recreation is endless—enjoy golf courses within 10 minutes, soak at Ainsworth Hot Springs in 20 minutes, or drive an hour to Whitewater for legendary downhill skiing, or Zincton for backcountry lines, and heli-skiing. With Castlegar Airport 45 minutes away and the US border just an hour south, this dream acreage is accessible yet beautifully a world-away. Imagine! This listing is “subject to receipt of the Grant of Letters of Administration” aka ""Probate"". (id:60351)
