Every time we drove through Osoyoos a few times a year, we were struck by the view from Anarchist Mountain. We were visiting friends one day and had been thinking about moving in a few years when our granddaughter was older.
We were sitting on the beach with some local friends and we were thumbing through a real estate magazine (one of my pastimes) and saw this place was up for sale. It was a former B & B so I knew it must have room and zoning should we do small retreats/workshops. It was a long weekend but, amazingly, with 15 hours notice, both the realtor and owner were available before our trek back to Vancouver.
We spent 1.5 hours looking at this place and fell in love instantly with the view, the size of the lots, and the potential.
The owner had put a lot of love into the place with her husband (who was a builder). We are still friends and have her over and she shares her knowledge of the area and wildlife freely. She is an artist and it shows...4 built in display units/curio cabinets, windows that go almost to the floor, the sunroom, and her inner courtyard.
From the beginning, as new owners we felt we really wanted to share this place and make it available to people who love views and wildlife.
Also, we missed the starts living in the stars. This is prime real estate for star gazing!
