Description
Tucked into 1.4 acres of forested land above Lake Cowichan, this Youbou property is the kind of place people are looking for when they're ready to slow down without giving anything up.
The main house has two bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, and a wraparound deck that makes the most of the lake views and outdoor living.
What sets this property apart is the flexibility. A detached studio offers a self-contained one-bedroom suite above with office and playroom below — ready for extended family or short-term rental income from day one. A two-bay shop with loft adds serious workspace and storage.
Private, forested, and a short walk to the lake — with three distinct spaces and real income potential built in.
