A rare opportunity to create an exceptional private estate, multi-home retreat or legacy property on 10.75 beautiful acres, just 4 km from the heart of Ganges. Set within an exclusive enclave of fine homes, this remarkable offering comprises TWO SEPARATE TITLES—each fully serviced and zoned for a residence, cabin and studio—providing extraordinary flexibility for an extended-family compound, guest accommodations, creative spaces or a truly special island retreat. The property already has many of the elements that define the Salt Spring lifestyle: an established vineyard, picturesque pond, mature natural surroundings and spectacular ocean-view building sites. The owner retains control of the view corridors, allowing sites to be further opened and tailored to complement the architecture and vision of each future residence. Much of the essential infrastructure is already in place. Both titles are connected to community water and have septic systems registered with Island Health. A high-producing well, licensed irrigation pond and newly constructed water-treatment facility provide additional resources for the vineyard, gardens and grounds. At 400 Baker Road, a charming cottage overlooking the vineyard offers comfortable accommodation for owners, family, guests or a caretaker while the larger estate takes shape. With the golf course at the top of the road, the beach at the bottom, extensive walking trails accessible from the property and the shops, restaurants and amenities of Ganges only 5 minutes away, the setting offers an exceptional combination of privacy and convenience. A unique opportunity to create a remarkable Salt Spring Island estate designed to be enjoyed for generations.

Besides being a Realtor, Andrew is also a certified French teacher and chess guru. He taught high school English in Paris from 1997-1998 and then, after moving to Taiwan to study Mandarin in 1999, he opened and ran a chess school in Taiwan from 2003-2008. (It’s still open and running today!)
Andrew and his wife Shu-Hui have two children, Jasmine and Joshua, and together, they enjoy camping, hiking, and cycling all over Vancouver Island. He still enjoys teaching languages, chess, and tennis, but most of his efforts are spent on teaching his kids, but he has taught (and will in the future) volunteer chess classes at Oaklands.
