998 Gillespie Rd in Sooke: Sk East Sooke Single Family Residence for sale : MLS®# 996658

A Rare Opportunity – A forested 5-acre Oceanfront Paradise Retreat with Untouched Beauty close to town! Includes full access to a 65-acre old forest shared with six other strata owners. A partially finished 4–5 bdr, 3 bth dream log home with wrap-around deck sits perched on a rocky ledge, perfectly positioned for sweeping views and awe-inspiring sunsets. Finish the home to suit your lifestyle. There’s a sheltered place for a dock, a sunny meadow for gardening, and a breathtaking lookout point. Zoning allows for a second house for guests or in-laws. The commons offer trails, a man-made pond, and a seasonal stream. Included: 1/7 ownership of a separate 10-acre fee-simple lot—a reserve for emergency funding or potential income (logging or tree farming). Secluded yet accessible—just 45 mins to downtown, 20 mins to Langford, and 30 mins to Victoria General Hospital. First time on the market. Step into a legacy built on vision, community, and care.
