Two spectacular $7 million islands are for sale near Vancouver Island
The thought of owning an island feels close to a Gatsby-like dream. Yet, if the idea of purchasing a home in British Columbia is already unattainable, why not let your imagination soar even higher?
If you have the money (or enough people), why not acquire an island? It beats grappling with the hassle of summer reservations, plus you can ensure the protection of a much-needed ecosystem.
Luckily, two islands off the coast of Vancouver Island are available for a whopping $7 million each.
