Set on an expansive 0.25-acre lot with breathtaking views in every direction, this property offers the perfect blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and exceptional outdoor space. Originally built in 1910, the 2,315 sq.ft. home has been thoughtfully renovated in recent years while maintaining its warm and inviting character. The main floor features a beautifully updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, generous dining area, multiple gathering spaces, a cozy living room anchored by a Jotul gas fireplace, a full bathroom, and convenient laundry. Large windows throughout frame stunning mountain views and fill the home with natural light. Occupying the entire upper level, the spacious primary retreat offers a peaceful escape complete with an ensuite bathroom, custom built-ins, and spectacular valley and mountain views. The lower level provides two additional bedrooms, a comfortable family room, and plenty of storage space. Outside, the meticulously landscaped and fully fenced yard creates a private oasis with room to relax, entertain, garden, and play. A detached garage, storage shed, and two paved driveways provide ample parking and storage for vehicles, trailers, and recreational gear. Located just minutes from downtown Fernie, trails, schools, and year-round recreation, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special West Fernie property. (id:63159)

How this is calculated

Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.

Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.

Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.
