Luxurious Mountaintop Ranch in BC, Canada
Zauberberg Manor is nestled in the heart of a 71 acre estate on Salt Spring Island, between Vancouver Island and BC's Lower Mainland.
The west coast alpine retreat with striking views over the Gulf Islands and the Cascade Mountain Range from its 1100 foot summit.
Neighbouring Mount Maxwell Provincial Park, the ranch property offers a wealth of natural attractions, ready to be explored by foot, mountainbike, or horseback, and comes with a hillside plum and apple orchard, bee apiaries, and a manor-side garden encircled by lavender and clover.
The mountain retreat was built in 1994 and renovated in 2019.
Zauberberg Manor features a distinctly modern design with vaulted ceilings, multiple lounge areas with wood and gas-fueled hearths, and 180-degree views from its expansive windows.
The 6 bedroom home comes with a state of the art kitchen and a wellness area designed as a holistic medicine clinic in the south wing.
The entire property is fitted with UV treatment/water softener with water fed by a new 2000 gallon cistern well.
Beyond the residence, find the pagoda-inspired Finnish wood-stove sauna and cabana, overlooking the pond.
The property also comes with 2 horse stables and 3 paddocks, and a pasture with a timber-frame barn, ideally suited for hosting large events or as additional living quarters for guests.
The property’s setting makes it feel a world away from civilization, yet the property is only 12 minutes to the local town’s centre, harbour, and beaches.
