    Description

    Set in the scenic Botanie Valley just north of Lytton, this 203± acre agricultural holding combines an established hay operation, a country residence and the opportunity to acquire additional forage-producing land within reach of the Fraser Valley and Interior ranching communities. Encompassing 1960 and 2000 Botanie Creek Road, the property includes approximately 117 acres in hay cultivation, with seller-reported average production of approximately 280 tons of alfalfa-mix hay per season. A gravity-fed irrigation system supplied by Botanie Creek serves the fields through five wheel lines, with the water source shared by two other licence holders. Open agricultural fields, mountain views and the quiet valley setting provide a compelling backdrop for a working farm, offering both productive use and the space and privacy of rural living.

    For a Lower Mainland dairy or livestock producer, or a rancher in the Lillooet or Cariboo regions, the property offers an opportunity to strengthen an existing operation through ownership of a separate forage base. Hay can be marketed commercially or directed to the purchaser’s livestock operation, potentially reducing reliance on purchased feed and helping build reserves for drier months or periods of tighter supply. For operators with Crown grazing tenures, additional winter-feed production may also support a proposal for herd expansion or a review of existing AUM allocations, subject to Crown forage availability and provincial assessment and approval. The investment appeal combines agricultural production, potential feed savings or hay revenue, residential use and long-term ownership of the underlying land. Regional access supports this strategy, with approximate driving times to Lytton of two hours from Chilliwack, one hour from Lillooet, two hours from Kamloops and two hours fifteen minutes from 100 Mile House, plus the additional drive to the property along Botanie Creek Road.

    The residence at 1960 Botanie Creek Road provides a practical home base with a covered deck, attached double garage, woodshed and two wood-burning stoves reported to have undergone WETT inspections. The roof was replaced approximately in 2009, and the domestic well is reported to be 117 feet deep. Two 40 ft storage containers with electrical service provide useful additional farm storage. For a new owner, opportunities exist to build on the established operation through targeted reseeding, improvements to drier fields, replacement fencing, updates to the residence and restoration of previously used spring infrastructure. With production influenced by seasonal water availability, these improvements warrant further assessment, offering a purchaser the opportunity to direct their investment toward the needs of their own operation.
