Ponderosa Ranch, Cobble Hill, BC, Canada

Description

Stunning private estate on 50 acres with valley, ocean and Mount Baker views. 30 minutes from downtown Victoria. Main home, caretaker/guest home, barn, workshop & equipment storage. Turnkey, meticulously maintained grounds and improvements.

SUMMARY

Ponderosa Ranch is a 50 acre private country estate situated in the highly desirable community of Cobble Hill, a short 30-minute drive from Victoria.

This unassuming property is minutes off the Island Highway and accessed off a quiet country road. The driveway into the property is centered between two other properties which front Freeman Road, and it is easy to miss. Once you have turned onto the driveway, it leads up around the bend to a security gate that can’t be seen from the main road. As you stop at the gate, you now begin to see what was hidden behind a privacy buffer of private land owned by the neighbors. As you enter the fully-automated iron gate, complete with telephone keypad and security camera, you will wind your way up the paved driveway through a white perimeter fenced path through sections of emerald green grazing areas up the hill to the estate.

As you near the estate you are greeted by a large water feature, where a jet pump sprays the water high into the air from a sizable pond situated near the main home.

Once you reach the top of the hill you begin to see the significance of all the improvements, and it becomes apparent how well this property is maintained and the pride of ownership. You get the feeling that a blade of grass isn’t out of place and as you start to look around you then realize, from the extremely private vantage point of the main home, that there is a spectacular view out over the valley and off into the distance of a really nice ocean view and on a clear day an impressive snow capped view of Mount Baker in Washington State.

AREA DATA

Cobble Hill is a small village on Vancouver Island, which is located approximately 14 kilometres (9 miles) south of Duncan and 45 kilometres (28 miles) north of Victoria in the Cowichan Valley Regional District. It is known for its agricultural surroundings and for Cobble Hill Mountain, which gave the village its name. According to the 2016 census, there are 5,019 people living in Cobble Hill.

There are many hiking trails and paths that cover the hills and forests of this area, which is well known for its mountain biking opportunities. The area has also more recently become famous for its vineyards, which have won awards for their wines.

The Cowichan Valley is on the south east side of Vancouver Island, which is a pastoral setting of rolling, green, fertile hills surrounded by rugged mountains and majestic softwood rainforests. The Mediterranean-like growing season and mild winters make it the most sought-after agricultural area on Vancouver Island and British Columbia's newest wine-growing region.

RECREATION

Cobble Hill is filled with recreation, historical sites, shops and galleries. Every August an old fashioned country fair is held at the Cobble Hill Fair Grounds with livestock and agricultural displays and family entertainment. You can also experience breathtaking views by climbing the village's namesake, Cobble Hill Mountain, in the Quarry Regional Wilderness Park.

The Arbutus Ridge Golf Club is a challenging par 71, 18-hole golf course and there are two golf courses nearby in Duncan. Enjoy family outings at the Cherry Point Nature Observation Park, which offers fabulous ocean views of Satellite Channel and Salt Spring Island. After enjoying a horseback ride along the hills and countryside, you can kick your shoes off and walk on the long sandy beaches nearby.

Last, but not least, is the fabulous Vancouver Island Wine Tours, which begins in early spring until the end of harvest time in the fall. You can start the tour just north of Victoria at the Merridale Estate Cidery and end it at one of the many wineries in Cobble Hill.
