There’s more than enough to power your every day needs, computer charging etc. Extensive road work at a cost of tens of thousands of dollars has gone in to create access, and a beautiful home site as well as a secondary site for a recreational vehicle or guest cabin. The cabin and homesite face due south with the sun coming up on the left through the bed window, and going down on the right through the kitchen window. The secondary site over looks amazing old growth forest with thousand year old trees. Outside of the bedroom window is an old growth spiked up snag towering over 35 feet in the air. There is a trail which has been added to the property and goes all the way to the far back north section which backs onto a 498,000 acre nature preserve and woodlot which encompasses the entire middle part of Malcolm island. This property is at the highest point in the very middle of Malcolm island. At the top of this trail is a magical covered Zen deck, wrapped around the base of an old growth tree, which is a red cedar and goes about 210 feet into the air. There is a small wood fire stone and a place to sit overlooking the creek. There’s also a 200+ year yew tree, to the right of the deck next to the base of the old growth cedar. It is dripping in old man’s beard to the point where you can almost not see it. The north and east side of this property have no neighbours whatsoever and when you’re in the far north east corner. The silence, The immensity of the surrounding wilderness and its place in the open channel of the North Pacific are all clearly evident to your senses. This is an incredibly quiet. Incredibly still place to be. From the cabin all you see is trees in every direction. With the outdoor shower looking on to an old growth management area which is one of the last old growth parcels on the whole island. There is a tree there which is approximately 1000 years old named the Sentinel. It overlooks the back of the property and you can see it clearly sitting on the back deck. As I have brush cut all the foliage between it and the view. At the entrance to the home site a gigantic Rock with a quartz vein running right through the middle of it, it was deposited some 400,000 years in the geologic event that created Malcolm island which is a very interesting island indeed as it is entirely made up of till. Do some research this place is surrounded with the most intense remaining near it. And as a result the nature experiences are unparallelled. This is a feature rich property full of energetically wonderful things. On clear nights you can see the Milky Way and every star in the sky there’s no light pollution whatsoever. The likelihood of any development anywhere near this cabin is extremely unlikely. It will remain private and quiet forever.
