This land opportunity is a rural one, located 30 minutes south east of Salmo. The property is located up a dirt road that requires a high clearance vehicle and is only seasonally accessible. The opportunity is ideal for someone who has the skills to live and grow food off grid, on solar power when available. There is some land available for grazing but fencing would be required (not installed already). Mobile housing could be brought onto site.
