House For Sale in Hedley, BC

A quiet country getaway on the Similkameen river with a private beach, about 20 minutes from Princeton, 30 from Keremeos and around an hour to Penticton or Osoyoos. Get close to nature surrounded by numerous wildlife species including many birds living & nesting on the property. Kayaking and tubing are popular river activities, and this spot is the best swimming hole for miles around. The property backs onto a gas pipeline, providing opportunities for hiking, quadding, or cross-country skiing.

With 1.4 acres of riverfront and roughly 2 acres across the road (where the house is), there is ample usable space with potential for a second home, BnB, hobby farm, or possibly a campground (with ALC approval). There are also several flat acres higher up with plenty of fir trees. The remaining area (about 100 acres) is mountainside.

The two story, 2000 square foot house is partly finished with a rustic wooden theme downstairs and a modern look upstairs. Remaining to be finished are the downstairs ceiling; and upstairs flooring, paint and trim. A section of the upstairs main room is plumbed & wired for a second kitchen but could also be turned into a bedroom, office, etc. The main heat source is a wood stove with electric backup. The whole house was rebuilt from the studs out in 2014, including windows, doors & siding. Exterior walls are 2x6.

The divided garage / workshop has a roomy 30 x 15 parking space and a 30 x 14 work space with 125 amp service. Additional parking for RVs, toys or guests is right out front. A small cabin by the river provides additional sleeping for summer guests, ideal for kids to go camping.

The location offers privacy and serenity with no neighbours in earshot and virtually no road traffic. It is ALR zoned with low taxes. Clean, natural water comes directly from an aquifer.
