Scenic lake view acreage just steps above Captains Cove Marina in Salmon Arm, overlooking the sparkling waters of Shuswap Lake.
This diverse 18.6-acre property is naturally divided by 72nd Avenue and Canoe Beach Drive NE into three distinct sections, each offering its own character and multiple potential building sites. Power is conveniently available along Canoe Beach Drive and runs through the property toward 72nd Avenue, providing straightforward connection options.
While current zoning does not permit subdivision, there may be potential to explore rezoning. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure has generally been supportive of subdivisions where parcels are “hooked” (where title crosses a roadway). Refer to maps and aerial images for a clear understanding of the layout.
The lower section, located below 72nd Avenue, spans approximately 4.3 acres and is primarily forested. Two established driveway access points lead to a flat, cleared bench with beautiful lake views and a scenic forested area to the east—an excellent building location.
The middle section, approximately 5.9 acres between Canoe Beach Drive and 72nd Avenue, offers two strong building opportunities. Both sites are accessed from 72nd Avenue and are situated on cleared benches with lake views. Power runs through this portion of the property and near one of the prime building locations.
The upper section, just under 9 acres, lies above Canoe Beach Drive and is fully forested. While much of the road frontage is steep, registered easement access is in place via a neighboring property (through a gated, paved driveway), leading to a desirable bench that may represent the premier building site on the property. An additional elevated bench offers further potential.
Zoned to allow a single-family home with an accessory suite or rural dwelling, the property also permits uses such as a bed and breakfast, childcare facility, kennel, or agricultural operations. This flexible zoning creates an opportunity to establish a private residence in one area while utilizing another for a home-based business or secondary dwelling.
