The Land & Streams

...and what Realtor & Google Maps don't show... 

3011 is located on the west side of 184th Street...

  • five homes south of 32nd Avenue (and two north of 29A Ave.)

  • a 4.564 acre property

  • with a frontage of ~290 feet, and

  • a depth/length of ~790 feet to back of property.

​​​

Those are the numbers. But what these don't give you is the experience. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​​​Lots of Sky

Bordered by trees on four sides, but with few in the centre, this property has only one main building on it. As a result, it gives the house a wide-open view of the western sky and sunsets from the second floor living room and deck.

​​

And because it's in the ALR (the Agricultural Land Reserve), no multi-unit residential developments can be built on/around it. That means this view will likely be enjoyed for years to come...

​​​​​​​​​Lots of Land

With 4.5+ acres, and few buildings, it means there is lots of land to enjoy!

​

So what would YOU to want to do with it?

  • Plan/build a new dream home

  • Create a small farm

  • Walk through nature

  • Enjoy the quiet, peaceful surroundings and wide-open space

  • Have a recreation area (e.g. near the pond at the back)

  • Or something else?

Two streams... and a Treed Pond

While Realtor/Google Maps don't show this, there are TWO streams which cross the 3011 property:  Laura Brook and Vandrishe Creek.

Here is where the two streams are actually located,

Brief Descriptions

​

Laura Brook is a very small stream that flows underground from the neighbouring property (under their driveway) to our pump shed, where water is taken out for our house.

​​​

It then surfaces just north of our driveway, and flows in a small channel towards the neighbour's property to the north.

​​​

Here is a little taste of what it looks & sounds like, just behind our house...

 

Vandrishe Creek is a larger, above-ground stream that flows from our neighbour's land to the south and goes across the west end of our property.

 

Due to damming downstream (human, and perhaps beavers as well), Vandrishe Creek has also formed a large, 'treed' pond at the very back of the property.

And this is what it looks like

when you are there....
