Massive Remote Island At 'End Of The World' On Sale For $35 Million
The island is half the size of Hong Kong, more than seven times larger than Manhattan and bigger than all the Florida Keys combined.
A vast and pristine expanse of remote land, known as Virgin Island, situated off the western coast of Chile, is currently seeking a new owner, preferably one with a spirit of adventure.
Untouched 1,10,000 acres of landmass
Covering more than 110,000 deeded acres, this private island offers an unparalleled opportunity to become the steward of a breathtaking landscape within the stunning Patagonian Archipelago. It is half the size of Hong Kong, more than seven times larger than Manhattan and bigger than all the Florida Keys combined.
Listed with Jeff Buerger of Hall and Hall for $35 million, Virgin Island presents an extraordinary prospect for those drawn to untouched natural beauty and seclusion. According to Buerger, the island's expansive coastline, freshwater sources, raw splendor, privacy, and seclusion make it a rare find in the realm of private island ownership.
Boasts of lakes, beaches, mountains
Moreover, with the entire area remaining undeveloped, there is immense potential for future construction projects. Virgin Island boasts a diverse terrain, featuring over 150 miles of coastline, 80 lagoons, three large lakes, towering mountains, verdant jungles, and sandy beaches.
Despite its vastness, the island currently lacks any residential structures, offering a blank canvas for visionary development. Peatlands, wetlands, and native forests further enhance the island's ecological richness and resilience to environmental change.
Protected by its surrounding calm waters, neighboring islands, fjords, and canals, Virgin Island is a sanctuary for wildlife, preserving ecosystems as they have existed for millennia.
Closest to mainland towns of Puerto Ays¨¨n and Puerto Chacabuco
The Andes Mountains, stretching across the entire length of the island, act as a natural climatic barrier, ensuring the integrity of its pristine landscapes and habitats. Accessing Virgin Island requires a journey starting from Santiago International Airport in Chile, followed by transit to Balmaceda Airport, and finally, a boat or helicopter ride to the island itself.
The closest mainland towns, Puerto Ays¨¨n and Puerto Chacabuco, serve as gateways to this remote paradise, offering essential amenities for travelers and potential residents alike.
For those with a passion for adventure and a desire to steward a piece of unspoiled wilderness, Virgin Island presents an unparalleled opportunity to immerse oneself in the untamed beauty of the Patagonian Archipelago.
