Sub-dividable West Kootenay Acreage - Pass Creek, BC

This scenic and mostly forested rural acreage in Pass Creek offers excellent subdivision potential.

Zoning: Permits lot sizes down to 1 hectare (2.5 acres)
Not in ALR

Spanning over 70 acres, this property features two forested knolls divided by Kinney Creek. The southern section of the creek connects to a small-lush pasture with rich soils. The forest is approximately 120 years old. Pass Creek Road forms the northern boundary, while McDaniel Road marks the southern boundary, providing ample road frontage and reducing the need for additional road construction should a subdivision be pursued. Power lines run along the road, further lowering service costs.

The area predominantly consists of parcels ranging from 2.5 to 10 acres. A cluster development with a mix of lot sizes from 2.5 to 10+ acres would be ideal. Potential buyers would be drawn to view lots with cabins or homes nestled in the woods, as well as hobby farm properties on the arable land around Kinney Creek.

A 10-minute drive south takes you to Castlegar, providing access to all urban amenities.

This property is a prime opportunity for subdivision, offering a blend of forested lots, scenic views, some arable land, and creek frontage perfectly suited for a variety of development possibilities.

The southern section of this knoll includes a driveway leading to a sloped land with scenic rocky outcrops and outstanding views.

Southeast Knoll

Fronting McDaniel Road, this area comprises about 20 acres and offers excellent view sites with southern exposure.
