The Belterra property is approximately 10 acres in size and is located within a 15 minute walk of the village of Snug Cove on Bowen Island. The site is sloping with some steep sections and a combination of forest and open meadow with a year round creek crossing the property. There are beautiful views to the mountains across Howe Sound and an eastern & southern exposure. Island Pacific School (a private middle school), Cates Hill Chapel, and the Teen Centre and Pre-school are all nearby.

The Context Plan and Aerial Context show the location of the property relative to Snug Cove and the surrounding area. The Site Features plan shows the Belterra property and its proximity to roads and neighbouring buildings.

The Biophysical Assessment prepared by Whitehead Environmental Consultants provides information about the presence of sensitive plant or animal species, habitats or ecosystems and streamside protection setbacks required to meet the provincial Riparian Areas Regulation.

We are working with an experienced cohousing development consultant to help us manifest our vision. We welcome you to contact us if you would like more information about how to get involved.
