Blue Stone Properties, Salt Spring Island, BC, Canada

"Explore the Possibilities of Island Life"

Located on the North End of Salt Spring Island in the Southern Gulf Islands sunbelt, is a very peaceful and unique estate property called "Blue Stone".

Named for the blue flagstone that protrudes from its natural, rolling benches, it commands an unparalleled ocean view that overlooks Trincomali Channel to a back drop of the renowned Wallace Island Marine Park and the pristine, undeveloped North end of Galiano Island.

Though only a 20 minute flight by seaplane from the hustle and bustle of Downtown Vancouver, it looks and feels like a different world. Douglas firs perfume the warm ocean breezes and the views are unspoiled by human development.

This collection of ten beautiful estate view lots has been thoughtfully developed to offer panoramic views while preserving as much of the natural vegetation as possible in order to create a very green, park-like setting.

The development celebrates this natural setting and endeavors to protect and enhance it through carefully constructed strata by-laws to ensure that all homes will be built and finished using high-end, natural materials. All architectural home designs will require approval by the strata corporation in order to maintain an elegant and organic feel to the property. The by-laws will have parameters that allow for individuality in design but have fairly stringent exterior finishing requirements that will lend itself to the west coast landscape. It is a development that is intended to be in harmony with its natural setting and designed to stay that way.

These by-laws will have several direct benefits to owners. They will ensure that all estate lots will have homes that are designed and finished to a high standard and that no home will impede the views of others. The result will be a sought-after "High Value" neighborhood which will not only have a spectacular ocean- view location, but also boast superior quality homes to complement the landscape and each other.

The property itself, is naturally divided into two sets of estate lots by a dramatic, lush, fern-covered ravine with a huge canopy of moss covered trees, some of which are over 700 years old. The ravine not only provides an extraordinary entrance to many of the properties but offers an immense blanket of privacy, preventing estate lots in the area known as "The Heights" from overlooking the estate lots located in the "Meadow".

The "Heights" is the area above the ravine and is comprised of 5 estate lots on a series of unique hillside benches with panoramic ocean views spanning from Mt. Baker to the North Shore Mountains. The "Meadow" properties are on the lower side of the ravine and also have spectacular ocean views. Though not quite as broad a view, they have a slightly more intimate ocean view and have a substantial meadow for children.

Each lot is over 3 acres in size and will allow for the construction of a main house and a guest/caretaker's cottage on site. All home and cottage building sites will be designated to ensure everyone's views are unobstructed. Blue Stone homepage
