New Development: Future Retail Space Opportunities

Located on the corner of Lee Road and the Island Highway, the owner will be developing additional retail. The traffic intersection is lighted with ample exposure and visibility. Situated between Qualicum and Parksville lends itself as a great community hub for commuters and those in surrounding neighbourhoods. The owners of this property are currently under consultation with the RDN and the community to determine the best future uses but with CM6 Zoning and a French Creek Mixed Use designation within the OCP, the property is conducive to many uses over approx 10 acres.

This Plan envisions that the French Creek Harbour will continue to be the focal point of the community of French Creek. The lands surrounding the French Creek Harbour contain a variety of historic complimentary land uses including single residential, commercial, multi-residential, and institutional, which when combined provide an opportunity for a limited amount of local services within a reasonable walking distance to serve the needs of the Community. The mixed use area supported by this Plan builds upon the existing commercial zoning by recognizing the existing development and supporting a mix of commercial and residential uses in close proximity to French Creek Harbour.

This unique listing offers both leasing opportunities in the French Creek area with optimal oceanfront Property and access directly off the Island Highway. The area is between the growing communities of Qualicum Beach and Parksville and is the hub for the French Creek Harbour which is home to the commercial fisherman, a fresh fish market, whale and ocean tour adventures, a local boat launch, sport fishing, Canadian Coast Guards, and the ferry that goes to Lasqueti Island. The community stays busy year-round as new developments are proceeding immediately around the area with the pressing need for housing growing. French Creek is located between Parksville and Qualicum Beach on Highway 19A.
