If city life is getting to be too much, escaping to an island home with a vineyard surrounded by lush forest might seem like a far-fetched dream.
But, for about the same price as a house in East Vancouver, one can buy such a place.
Hornby Heart Vineyard is currently on the real estate market if a change of occupation and location is needed. It's listed for just under $3 million.
Located on Hornby Island, which is about 100 km from Vancouver near the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, the winery and residence are on a 10-acre property.
"The property spans lush vineyards, old-growth forest and fertile farmland, with four acres of meticulously maintained mature vines, crafted into small batches of artisanal wines," reads the listing from realtor Jenessa Tuele.
It's more than just some grapevines and a house, too.
There's an event space, including a restaurant, which can be used for hosting weddings. There's a bar and pizza oven in the restaurant space, along with a commercial kitchen nearby.
There's also a separate wine-tasting room with retail space.
And, along with the winery, there's an accommodation aspect, with nine furnished glamping tents set up and a little cabin.
