Own this former Buddhist spiritual retreat in Rock Creek for an existential $3M

Previously, it was the Humuh Clear-Mind Buddhism Jeweled Path of Living Wisdom.

It was the compound seekers visited for spiritual retreats, holistic healing, meditation and inner transformation.

Now, the remote and serene 219-acre property off Highway 33 between Rock Creek and Westbridge is up for sale for $3,049,000.

"This property has a number of unique aspects," said Sachin Varma, the realtor from Surrey-based EXP Realty that has the listing for sale.

"(There are) a number of different homes (18 homes and cabins, plus a barn and workshop) on the property, a large river frontage (4,500 feet on the Kettle River), an orchard and both ALR (agricultural land reserve) and no-zoning areas on the property allowing for many potential uses."

In the listing, the myriad of possibilities is described as "unlimited" as an investment, to develop or to retire.

The property could again be some sort of spiritual or corporate retreat, a farm, a winery with vineyards, the place to build your dream home and live off-grid in peace or rent out the numerous homes long-term or Airbnb-style.

"Bring your ideas and discuss with the (kootenay Boundary) Regional District to see what can be done," said Varma.

Whatever the use, the users can enjoy views of the meandering Kettle River and float in it for fun.

The actual address is 6055 Kettle River Forestry Service Road, off Highway 33, between Rock Creek and Westbridge in the Christian Valley in what's known as Boundary Country, about 50 kilometres east of Osoyoos.

Most recently, the property has been home to two families.

Varma is marketing the compound through real estate's Multiple Listing Service, so it has wide visability.

"There are a variety of potential buyers," he said.

"Someone with a vision to take this diamond in the rough and polish it to its full potential. Someone with an entrepreneurial spirit that sees the potential in this property."
