Ever dreamed of living on your own private island? Loon Island on Pavilion Lake – a four-hour drive from Vancouver – is currently on the market for less than half the average price for a home in the neighbouring BC city.
According to realtor Kevin Scharfenberg, the lake is famous for its brilliant emerald glow in the summer, and that’s not the only natural attraction. NASA and the Canadian Space Agency are currently researching a mysterious karst formation that resembles ocean coral.
The island listing boasts 175 metres of waterfront panoramic views, two cabins, and a 2015 solar powered house – your own slice of paradise, for $NZ734,000.
