Anyone have the London results?
4 Aspen Pl had quite the history and is a very valuable piece of land.

Would love to know what it went for.

Anyone have 'em? Think only the lot in Vienna went through. Looked like a decent piece of land.

General / Ramara - Orkney Beach - "bathing rights"
« on: August 27, 2021, 12:32:48 PM »
Wanted to see what the deal with Orkney Beach was. Township disclaims that the land is subject to multiple rights of way and is not buildable. However, it has a very high appraised value/taxes for a supposedly non-buildable lot.
I pulled a couple of the easements themselves and it seems the land and adjacent beach are subject to the "bathing rights" of neighbouring cottages. Probably used as a bit of water access for the community. Street view shows the lawn being maintained and a bench overlooking the water.
I, personally, am not convinced that this makes the lot unbuildable. If I were a real estate lawyer I'd argue that building a small cottage in the corner of the lot does not substantially interfere with the neighbours "bathing rights."
Prospective buyer would also have to deal with the conservation-regulated small waterway bisecting the lot, and any shoreline regs.
It's all two much hassle for me so I'm sitting it out and sharing what I know about the landmines - haven't check all the registered easements, but I think it might be at least theoretically be a worthwhile venture for someone - as long as they are willing to deal with conservation authority and bathing neighbours in your yard (or if you think you can negotiate the removal of ~20 separate rights of way)

...might be the finest looking tax sale property I ever did see. What are the chances it doesn't get cancelled?
Beware the 25 acres woodlot. Across from an old landfill with reports of groundwater contamination.

What do you guys think of the Brantford sales? Some interesting options there. The two houses look decent (although the one on Drummond looks like it might have an illegal addition on the back). As do the adjoining industrial lots on Henry, and the vacant development lots near Cumberland (zoned residential) (if you're the type of person that knows what to do with industrial property or has the capital to develop land, which I unfortunately am not).
