Description
Here's your chance to own a rare piece of Vancouver Island history. Built in 1935 as part of the original Prince of Wales Fairbridge Farm School project, this 6,989 sq ft character home offers 9 beds & 6 baths on 1.87 park-like acres located in the heart of the historic Fairbridge community. Wind your way through history as you enter this magical enclave of period homes, manicured gardens, and acres of common fields to enjoy, all with a slice of history and tranquillity. 4755 Fairbridge is one of the largest original structures on the storied 75-acre home site, steps from the iconic 1939 Fairbridge Chapel & clock tower. This beautifully cared-for home cannot be reduced to one paragraph and must be seen in person to be fully appreciated. This parcel is truly park-like land with a very large, flat backyard, perfect for families looking to slow down and raise the next generation away from cities and among the rolling hills and farmers' fields of the Cowichan Valley.
