Off-Grid Tiny Home on Lasqueti, Built and Ready to Move In

Looking for a simpler, more self-sufficient way of life, or even just an island retreat? A 50-minute water taxi trip from French Creek Habour north of Parkesville to Lasqueti Island brings you to a rare opportunity to own an off-grid tiny home in a nature-rich, peaceful and supportive community with many work-from-home telecommuters and tradespeople living and employed on a paradisical enclave that is the warmest place in the Gulf with mild winters and moderate summers.

If you already own a tiny home and need a place to park it, we can accommodate that too for $650 per month plus GST.

The island is well equipped with regular water taxi and barge services, a bakery and cafe, a hotel and pub, as well as two petrol pumps, propane and diesel supplier, a school, helipad, essential emergency services (fire and ambulance), and more, making it a convenient yet peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. You can even order groceries from the mainland and pick them up at the wharf in False Bay.

How It Works:

You buy The Surfbird Tiny Home [courtesy of Vancouver Island's Rewild Homes, https://www.rewildhomes.com/], for $249,500 plus GST, which includes transport, site prep, water, wastewater, energy systems, deck, parking and much more; in other words, we handle all the logisticcs and then some... Note financing is available.

You rent your own 1.6 acre piece of heaven for $650/month plus GST.

Sick of the high cost of living on Vancouver Island or the mainland? Want to have a smaller eco footprint? Want to grow some of your own food and produce your own wood and solar energy? Still need to be connected to the internet and work-from-home but this time on an island that is warmish in winter (about 5-degrees Celsius) and moderate in summer? Want to live in a place that is safe and the size of Manhattan but only has about 700 permanent residents? Don't want to be overrun by tourists? Did you know that Lasqueti apparently has more engineers living there per capita than any other part of BC? Want to be close to False Bay but far enough away to be private and nestled in a treed landscape?
