Christian Valley Ranch
A pristine, remote rural property with breathtaking views of the Christian Valley.
Two Purchase Options Available
This property was the original homestead of an over 3000-acre section of the Christian Valley; supporting family homesteading for over 50 years.
A pristine, remote rural property in the heart of Christian Valley, this 392-acre haven is an ideal canvas for those eager to manifest their homesteading aspirations or establish a tranquil home away from the city's chaos. The property showcases a two-storey house warmed by a wood fire cast-iron stove, epitomizing a snug abode where one can genuinely savour all four seasons. Modern comforts like a workshop, barn, wood shed, fuel shed, washer, fridge, dishwasher, and Starlink Internet Dish seamlessly blend with its rustic allure.
The 2599 ft² house includes 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, 1 half bath, a main sitting area approximately 800 ft2 with vaulted ceilings and a spacious kitchen with a pantry. A standout feature is the fenced 2500ft² kitchen garden (which provided over 50% of fresh vegetables), which, coupled with the breathtaking views of the valley and its rich wildlife, offers a daily dose of nature's splendour. The property's elevation ensures protection from river flooding.
The Kelowna International Airport is a mere 2.5 hours away. The Christian Valley Road is diligently maintained, providing year-round access. The Kettle River offers exceptional fishing, swimming and rafting opportunities. A sustainable future is tangible with a quote for off-grid solar power already in hand, and a wood lot promises fuel for years to come.
Friends and family often remark, "This is the best night's sleep I've had," echoing the property's serene ambiance. This isn't merely land; it's a golden opportunity for farmers, homesteaders, preppers, and those seeking a life less ordinary. Dive into this natural sanctuary, surrounded by crown-accessible land. Flanked on its western boundary by vast stretches of crown-accessible land, this property is a wildlife sanctuary, rich with Rocky Mountain Elk, Shiras Moose, Mule Deer, Whitetail Deer, Grouse, Raptors and Turkeys.
