The Shore at Narrows West took years of uncompromising planning to create 22 ecologically significant residential Lots from 300 plus acres.

Some of these unique 3 acre plus building Lots are currently listed for sale to discriminating buyers. The remainder of the property is the private park-like nature preserve of the Strata Lot Owners or the Estate Lot 31.
Narrows West was gently created out of wilderness, a mile of oceanfront and an indigenous forest perched Westerly on the shore of Sansum Narrows. Many unusual characteristics of this Island’s quiet side make these estate properties likely the last development of its kind.
The design objective of Narrows West was to place the Lots amidst the sea and landscapes to ensure a natural state for future generations. A balance between nature, life style, light and quality has been accomplished with the building Lots, home sites, roads and services.
Tucked away at the road’s end, the delicate ridge emerges providing access to each of the Lots. Thirteen Lots sit at the ocean’s edge with wide water frontage and captivating Gulf Island views. Nine Lots have expansive ocean views with private access to the sea shore, including a planned private moorage dock. The features of Narrows West are unlikely paralleled and include: privacy; swimmable waters – rare in this area; great sun exposure; magical sunsets; perfect natural light and a warm micro-climate. This premium address is also an area for hiking, nature, world class boating, water sports and fishing enthusiasts.
Imagine living in a peaceful setting yet four miles from the village shops, restaurants, services, schools, hospital and Fire & Rescue. Now imagine less stress, a rural community, watching whales, eagles and shore birds, getting exercise, gardening, farming and enjoying the boats and seaside. Narrows West is a simple choice of living in a sought after environment.
Each house site at Narrows West is subtly planned to have quality construction of a single family home, guest cottage, accessory buildings and agricultural use. Commercial use is not permitted. Landscaping, whether native, natural or designed, is an integral component. Here you can create your own architectural style within a designed setting which is important to the value of your real estate investment.
Unlike most developed properties, Narrows West is the family home of its developers. The detail and cost of shaping these lands was not a series of economic efficiencies but rather their vision. The developers intend to maintain some of the Lots for their personal use and family holdings, making only some of the 22 Lots available for sale.
Prawns, crab, clams and other sea life are at your doorstep. Water ski, scuba dive, sail, fish, boat or just gunk hole. These waters are some of the best of the Pacific Ocean with many Vancouver Island and Gulf Islands marinas and harbours close by. Visit the old waterfront market at Cowichan Bay; have dinner at the laid back Maple Bay Marina; head up to the famed waters of Desolation Sound; or explore the San Juan Islands and even Vancouver. Travel brochures boast these eco tour features and it is all at Narrows West.
