Ownership Interest in Hernando Island

A rare opportunity exists to acquire an ownership interest in Hernando Island, perhaps the most coveted and exclusive island in British Columbia. Since its founding in 1972, the 52 shares in Hernando Island Holdings have traded almost exclusively between founding shareholder families and close friends. Each share has a particular building site attached to it. The building site attached to the share available has incredible views of Desolation sound and a private sand beach. However, the acquirer of the share has the right to exchange their site for any of 22 sites available around the island for them to build their dream home. Hernando’s 2,600 acres are primarily open space for walking and cycling on improved paths and roads.  The island has abundant fresh water, a dock, a helicopter landing area, ample moorage sites, a community garden, tennis and basketball courts, incredible fishing and marine life, and the best white sand beaches in BC. A resident caretaker staff ensures security in the off season, and shareholder services year around.  A number of highly skilled builders with extensive experience on the island are available to make the new shareholder’s dream become a reality. Island governance is based on providing the quiet enjoyment for each shareholder that its founders envisioned. The diverse island community all share one thing in common: an absolute love for Hernando.
