Presenting the offering of Canada's premiere Pinot Noir winery. Highly acclaimed Averill Creek Vineyards offers a turnkey winery operation amidst the breathtaking North Cowichan scenery. The winery’s state of the art building was designed by Architect Vasko Pavlov with a unique gravity flow design. Perched above the vineyards, the stunning building blends seamlessly into the riparian landscape. This reputable winery business includes a 45 acre property with 24 acres of planted vineyard, the 8,300 square foot production building/tasting room, a manufactured home for farm workers, all winery and vineyard equipment, and the brand and business intangible assets. The vineyards are planted with Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Gewurtztraminer, Marechal Foch, Cabernet Foch, Merlot, and Pinot Grigio. They are located 12 km from the ocean on the gentle slopes of Mount Prevost, surrounded by old-growth forest. The winery is situated on Royston-Qualicum soil: a blend of glacial stone, clay, and old-growth organics, which allows sufficient drainage and root penetration. Averill Creek primarily dry-farms with a focus on biodynamic, regenerative, and organic principles. Located within the Sonomos region of the Cowichan Valley Geographical Indication, Averill Creek is known for its exceptional quality, minimal intervention wines. Their wine is served at Vancouver’s Michelin star restaurants and notable establishments throughout the province. Their wine lineup ranges from their popular “Joue” table-wine collection to their trademarked Charme de l’ile sparkling wine to their premium reserve Pinot Noir. Averill Creek’s winemaking approach is one of pragmatism. Being in a cool climate, they aim to demonstrate the inherent elegance, texture, perfume and refreshing quality of their wines. They often employ techniques such as foot-stomping, skin contact, whole-bunch fermentation, pigeage, and lees ageing to enhance these characteristics. No enzymes or nutrients are added, and little to no sulphur is added. Most wines are unfined and unfiltered. The winery is situated in Canada’s only Maritime-Mediterranean climate. Consistent warm, dry summer days ensure phenolic ripeness, while coastal influence and overall latitude equate to persistent acid and freshness in the fruit. Soil profile varies throughout the Valley, and can consist of glacial sand, glacial stone, clay and loam. Given the relative infancy of the region, soils are fairly pristine and many producers are committed to preserving the region by farming sustainably. Averill Creek Vineyards offers a wine enthusiast and aspiring entrepreneur the opportunity to own a notable winery in this exceptional and increasingly-recognized wine region. Please reach out to the listing agents for a tour. We respectfully ask that you do not solicit, approach staff, or reach out to the business owner directly in regards to the winery sale.

Rare! Hank Schubart designed home set on 23 pristine, private acres above Cowichan Bay, offering sweeping ocean, valley, and mountain views from nearly every room. Deep overhangs float above walls of glass, and low rooflines trace the land's contours, as if the house grew straight out of the hillside — a rare, unrestored piece of West Coast architectural history. The Main Floor A gravel path winds through mature ornamental pines and native plantings to the entry, where the home's low, horizontal profile first reveals itself. Step inside to a warm foyer that opens into a sweeping living room, anchored by a rusticated stone fireplace and wrapped in walls of glass that pull the eye straight out to the valley, mountains, and glimpses of the Cowichan estuary beyond. Exposed fir beams and a wood-planked ceiling carry through the main level, giving every room a sense of shelter without ever closing off the view. The family room and open kitchen sit at the heart of the home, the kitchen updated over the years with granite counters, a large island with bar seating, and skylights that flood the space with natural light — all while staying true to the timber-framed character Schubart intended. The adjoining dining area, lit by a maple wood & iron chandelier, opens directly onto the home's expansive deck, where a hot tub takes full advantage of the same panoramic outlook — sunsets over the valley, mist rising off the estuary at dawn, and mountains layered blue into the distance. A main-floor bedroom and full bath round out the level, offering flexible living for guests or single-level convenience. The Upper Floor Upstairs, the primary suite occupies its own private wing — a generous 17'2 x 24'6 retreat beneath vaulted, beamed ceilings, with skylights and walls of glass that keep the valley and mountain views present even from bed. A walk-in closet and ensuite bath complete the suite, finished with the same warm, hand-crafted detailing found throughout the home. It's a space built to wake up in slowly, coffee in hand, watching the light move across the water below. The Workshop & Outbuildings Beyond the main residence, a substantial log-built workshop offers a rare bonus for hobbyists, artisans, or anyone who simply needs a serious space to work with their hands. Built in the same log-and-timber language as the main house, it's outfitted with built-in workbenches, ample power, natural light from clerestory windows, and its own wood stove for year-round use — the kind of space that could just as easily house a woodworking shop, an art studio, or a mechanic's dream garage. Tucked into the forest and raised on log stilts, a charming log-built bunkhouse adds a genuinely rare bonus to the property — part treehouse, part guest cabin, reached by a rustic timber staircase climbing the hillside. Inside, twin log-frame bunks flank a cozy wood stove, warmed by string lights and topped with handmade quilts, antler hooks, and a repurposed wagon-wheel light fixture overhead. Vintage kilim runners cover the wood-plank floor, and a live-edge log table offers a spot to set down a lantern or a good book. At dusk, the cabin glows amber through its log walls and windows, a magical retreat for kids, guests, or anyone chasing that true off-grid cabin feeling — all without leaving the property. The Land The 23-acre property offers exceptional privacy and function to match its beauty. Ample parking accommodates boats, RVs, and multiple vehicles, making this a rare fit for anyone with toys to store and adventures to launch — all just minutes from Cowichan Bay's docks and boat access to the Gulf Islands. The Architect- Henry Schubart Henry Hank Schubart (1916–1998) was an American-Canadian architect whose life reads like an origin story for West Coast design. Inspired as a teenager by Frank Lloyd Wright's autobiography, Schubart wrote to Wright and was accepted into his Taliesin fellowship, tuition waived.
