Property Information:

A rare and compelling acreage offering with scale, history, and income potential. Set on just over 21 acres with sweeping views of the City of Cranbrook and the Steeple Mountain Range, this nearly 5,000 sq ft rancher was originally constructed as church-owned residential quarters for nuns and staff. Today, it operates as a 13-bedroom, 13.5-bathroom boarding-style residence with potentional gross income in excess of $100,000 annually. The well-maintained main residence includes a private owner’s suite featuring a bright living and dining area with deck access overlooking landscaped grounds and a serene waterscape. The suite offers a spacious bedroom, renovated ensuite with soaker tub and in-floor heat, and dedicated office. Twelve additional guest rooms each include private baths and share a large, fully equipped communal kitchen and dining area designed for comfortable shared living. The grounds are meticulously cared for with expansive lawns, raised garden beds, multiple decks, and a firepit area—creating an inviting rural setting with institutional-level improvements. This is a credible investment opportunity with substantial flexibility; however, buyers are advised that current and future uses are subject to zoning and approval by the Regional District of East Kootenay. Any continuation or change of use, including group living, retreat, or institutional housing, must be independently verified. Exceptional scale, setting, and long-term upside for the informed purchaser.
