Five acres of Pender Island for$1.2 million– with a fig orchard, a personal pond, and a renovated West Coast– design home currently on it.
That’s the pitch at 5582 Hooson Rd, a residential or commercial property tucked into the Hope Bay area with south and west direct exposure, and enough open area to make you forget the rest of the world exists.Built in 2010,
the 1,436-sq.-ft. home is designed around the concept that the indoors and outdoors shouldn’t be all that separate.
Big glass doors open onto extensive decking, the south and west direct exposures flood the interior with light, and the warm, contemporary aesthetic within does not take on what’s occurring on the other side of the glass.

The cooking area has actually been renovated, and in-floor heating runs throughout– an information that matters when you’re in the Gulf Islands in February. A brand-new heat pump has been installed, in addition to a new hot water tank and hydronic system improvements. On the exterior: customized siding, brand-new soffits, fresh paint, new exterior lighting, and custom-made stairs and railings. The main bed room also received a new structural wall, door, and window.

Our Favourite Thing
The fig orchard. A mature fig orchard on a Gulf Island residential or commercial property is not a thing you experience every day, and it tips this listing from “nice retreat” into something with a bit more character.

The land itself is an entire other story. Five-plus acres on Pender Island is an unusual thing to start with, and this one includes a fully grown fig orchard, a personal pond, and open area that lends itself to gardens, animals, or absolutely nothing in specific.
The upper part of the home has services in location for a RV or future advancement capacity– useful versatility in a market where Gulf Islands lots at this scale don’t come up often.
