Description

Cute as a button and full of character, this two bedroom, one bath home offers a wonderful opportunity for first time buyers, those looking to downsize, or anyone seeking comfortable living. Situated on a corner lot directly across from the park and within walking distance of downtown Salmo, this home offers both charm and convenience. A welcoming front flex room provides a versatile space for a mudroom, home office or hobby area before opening into the bright, open concept living space. The living room, highlighted by a wood stove, flows into the dining area and kitchen, creating a comfortable layout for everyday living and entertaining. A separate sitting area offers the perfect place for reading or relaxing. Two nicely sized bedrooms and a tastefully updated bathroom complete the home. Careful improvements have enhanced comfort and functionality while preserving the home's original character. The kitchen features new cabinetry, countertops and appliances, with additional improvements including flooring, lighting, electrical service and an on demand hot water system. Original hardwood floors throughout the living areas and both bedrooms add timeless appeal. The fully fenced backyard is a true extension of the home, featuring raised garden beds, multiple berry bushes, an apple tree, lilacs, a sitting area and fire pit. A woodshed and workshop/storage building add convenience. Bright, welcoming and full of personality, this charming home is ready to welcome its next owners. (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.
