Porcher Island, Lot B Hunts Inlet

Discover the beauty of Porcher Island and the northern BC coast from this family-friendly home in Hunts Inlet! Separated from Haida Gwaii by Hecate Strait, Porcher Island sits south of Prince Rupert on the rugged BC Coast. At approximately 200 square miles, Porcher has a diverse topography, with a mountainous interior and large rivers.

Hunts Inlet sits at the northern end of Porcher Island. The small enclave of homes is about halfway down the inlet, on the west side. It features an exclusive collection of oceanfront homes with a government dock and main ATV gravel road connecting the community.

The 6.38 acre property is at the southern end of the community, and offers approximately 108ft of walk-on oceanfront as well as a private dock. The common roadway bisects the lower portion of the property, providing easy access to the government dock at the north end of the community. The remainder of the property is in its natural state of vegetation.

The 1300sqft home offers bright, open living spaces with high ceilings. The living room features a free-standing wood stove, wood floors and large windows overlooking the oceanfront. The kitchen has ample storage including a pantry built in to the cabinetry, a double sink and a propane range. A sliding door in the kitchen leads out to the oceanfront deck while another door at the side of the kitchen leads to the covered portion of the deck.

The two larger bedrooms are along the back of the home, with a smaller bedroom and 3 piece bathroom on the front side. The bathroom has cabinets, a toilet, a shower and jetted tub, with an oceanside window. A mud room entrance at the back houses the washing machine and the propane fridge as well as providing lots of space for rain gear and outdoor items.

The home is being sold with all major furnishings and sundry items, excluding a few personal pieces.

The wood walkways around the home feature wood milled onsite, and the very private backyard has a firepit and garden area as well as forest. There is a detached workshop, a woodshed, a generator building, outhouse and covered ATV parking.

Power is either propane (fridge, stove, hot water) or solar and generator electricity, including the space heaters. There is an oil heater in one of the bedrooms, but the current owners have not used it. Domestic water is gravity-fed rainwater collection, with a 2000 gallon storage tank.

The home is on pilings, with open storage underneath. The metal roof was put on in 2022.

There is a dockside fish cleaning station with running water and two sea kayaks included in the sale. The Alaskan mill on site is not included in the offering.

This home and property offers a cozy getaway with room for family and friends, ready to make your own this summer!
