This Entire Private Island For Sale In BC Is Cheaper Than The Average West Vancouver Home

It comes with its own beach, and cabin! 🏝️

Contributing Writer

You can purchase this entire private island in B.C. and it could still cost you less than a home in Metro Vancouver.

The tiny island is called Fane Island and it comes with 1.9 acres of land and a cabin for $2.49 million. The average home in West Vancouver is currently going for $2.6 million, according to WOWA.

Why not skip the neighbours, and just buy yourself an island instead?

The island is less than five minutes from Hope Bay on Pender Island and even has a small harbour. The charming cabin on the property comes with utilities and a fully approved septic system, so you wouldn't have to add that in after.

It has one bedroom, one bathroom and a kitchen that overlooks the harbour. If the place is too small for you, the purchase will also allow you to take it down to rebuild your very own dream home.
