Acreage For Sale in Ucluelet, BC

“The South Ridge” is a forest oasis in one of the most sought-after regions in the country that presents a unique opportunity to live sustainably on the west coast of Vancouver Island.

Only 20 minutes from the Ucluelet and Tofino junction, the very private – but easily accessible – Ittatsoo Bay development rests on the Pacific shoreline of the northwestern tip of Barkley Sound, near the Ucluelet Harbour. Skip the drive and kayak to town for groceries, it doesn’t get less low-footprint than here. This is off-grid living at its finest.

Giant cedars and hemlocks tower over wise, old shore pines all covered in rich, mossy blankets, with delicate ferns and shrubs scattered amongst them. This coastal rainforest haven is ready for your vision to come alive. A beautiful, private beach with a boat launch is nestled in a tranquil bay within walking distance that only landowners have access to.

Watching the sun set over the Beg, Fraser, and Broken Islands while hearing the seals calling out across the ocean or watching whales migrate offshore is an unparalleled experience.

A tremendous amount of energy and infrastructure has already been poured into this 5-acre private parcel of land, which boasts a beautiful gravel driveway that weaves through the lot towards two cleared (+ more possible) building sites at different elevations that are ready to go. There are two separate driveways to access the lot, creating privacy from the different building sites. Zoning allows for a single-family home, carriage house and multiple outbuildings with substantial sun exposure to harness solar energy.

A fully operational well with a hand-pump draws from the abundant aquifer beneath it. Though existing owners within the development have chosen to remain “off-grid” to preserve the natural beauty and enhance opportunities for self-sufficiency, electrical power is only 1.5 kilometres from the land. Strong cell service is found throughout the entire development.

Whether you’re in it for the surf, the wild untamed landscape, or the sustainable self-sufficient lifestyle as a whole - you’ve found it here. Welcome home!
