Fernie Island, a private 15-acre retreat in British Columbia's Southern Gulf Islands, offers exceptional accessibility near the Saanich Peninsula. Just minutes from the BC Ferries terminal at Swartz Bay, Canoe Cove Marina, and Victoria International Airport, the island ensures seamless connections to Vancouver, Victoria, and international destinations. Owned by the same family for over 50 years, this remarkable property features a protected harbour with a 10x40 dock and all-tide access. 3-bedroom, 2,100 sq. ft. 3-season home, an older caretaker’s cabin, a partially renovated studio cabin, a workshop, storage buildings, and a covered sawmill area. Services include hydroelectric power, a productive well with 14,000 gallons of water storage, and septic. With gentle topography, low and medium bank water access, and a mature forest of Douglas fir, arbutus, and juniper, Fernie Island is an ideal recreational or residential opportunity. This rare property must be seen to be fully appreciated.
