RARE 5-acre south-facing oceanfront lot with about FIVE HUNDRED SIXTY FEET OF BEACH...on beautiful Mudge Island, the only QUIET GULF ISLAND with hydro and internet, accessible by boat only, near Gabriola Island. This undeveloped property is magical with its big arbutus specimens, old fir and maples, and about 560' of beachfront with *fossiliferous* stone benches and sandstone formations! The high bank means FABULOUS VIEWS over a wide expanse of water known for whale activity - the neighbours send notifications when it's happening. The 180° views feature iconic Round Island in the foreground, and a panorama of many more islands and mountain ranges. The lot's upper section is about 3.33 acres of gentle mossy terraces; near the cliff edge there are steep game trails to the water, not too difficult for hikers - but access could be improved greatly with some trail building or a series of staircases amongst the big trees and lush platforms. This property is rare for being WIDE instead of deep; while other south-facing 5 acre parcels occur on Mudge, few have so many building site options, or such a wide beach front. And only one side of this lot borders a neighbouring property! A short dropoff just off shore is great for swimming (see photos). A Transport Canada compliant mooring system can be installed for the buyer, by the seller. There is power at the road. Membership at the Moonshine Cove Marina is offered separately by the seller.

Location
About
My family immigrated to Lantzville in the 1880s and I was born in the Old Hospital on Machleary Street in Nanaimo in the 1960s. I grew up in Nanaimo on Departure Bay Road–right across from Rock City School. My father worked at the Biological Station and every landmark brings back memories of a lifetime lived in the same area.
Licensed as a Realtor in 1993, I have been fortunate to be selling real estate and homes in and around the central island area for more than 20 years. Google Earth is amazing, and you feel like you can know a place pretty quickly, but nothing beats having footprints in all the corners. I’ve hiked the local mountains, swam in all the lakes and driven every road. I went to school here, had my first job here, and my dad taught me to drive here. I even remember going through the old A&W (now a Speedy Muffler).
I embrace integrity as the guiding principal to every decision I make. Quite possibly the most important aspect of my relationship with you is our communication. Clear, honest, timely, and accurate communication. As we work together, our relationship will evolve and change, but it’s important that the core value of mutual respect and appreciation for each other’s point of view will always remain.
My mission is simple: to promise a lot and deliver more. How do I do that? By communicating clearly, listening to my clients’ needs, providing remarkable service to clients while keeping in mind my guiding principles, and fairly representing my clients in the attainment of their real estate goals.
To put it simply, I never forget that I am working for you. I hold integrity, strength, honour, family, perseverance, patience, knowledge and balance as key aspects of my life, and apply those values to every part of my work as a real estate agent.
