Build Your Dream Home!
Description
19 Acres (8 hectares) about 15 minutes from Smithers on the Telkwa High Road. About five acres (the bottom portion) has been cleared. A cliff separates the bottom half of the property from the top portion. Access is to the top portion is through a right of way. House on adjacent property has well water. Hydro is available at property line. There is a nice view of Hudson Bay Mountain in the distance. Bottom portion of property is a lovely building site.
I have attached two pictures which show the location on the BC Assessment Map. Another shows the lot lines and the location of the right of way to the top of the property. To access the ROW easement you take the Telkwa High Road to the corner. You then go up the driveway to the end of it. There is a very rough road to the top of the property. The "Hook" shape ROW is at the top half of the property. It gives access to this property and the adjacent one on the right (when facing the Telkwa High Road).
To get to the property, you drive east of Smithers, turn onto the Babine Lake Road (not the "OLD" one), turn left when you reach the Telkwa High Road. The property is about 1 - 2 km down the road.
I got some surveyors in to better demarcate the property.
There simply is not to many properties like this: (location to town, size, and building sites). It would be a lovely area in which to raise a family! But remember, when this one is gone it is gone. Do not delay and live with the regret!
