If you're looking to invest in your own private fishing escape, an oceanfront piece of property on Porcher Island in the Hecate Strait has come up for sale for $189,000.
Located close to the mouth of the Skeena River 28 kilometres from Prince Rupert, the 6.26-acre parcel of land is accessible by float plane or boat.
On the property is a two-bedroom, solar- and generator-powered home as well as a workshop and powerhouse.
The lot is long and skinny, with neighbouring homes nearby.
The island itself has a rich history involving B.C.'s salmon fishing industry and was once the home of a cannery which opened in 1928.
More details are available through LandQuest and its listing agent John Armstrong.
