Description

One of Fernie's most unique homes, this custom-designed residence combines modern architecture, exceptional energy efficiency, and incredible mountain views. Built in 2014, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers approximately 1,300 sq. ft. of finished living space, plus an unfinished basement with future potential. The thoughtfully designed main level offers a functional layout with floor-to-ceiling windows, while flexible upper-level living spaces can easily adapt to your family's changing needs. The spectacular rooftop patio is the true showstopper. Take in panoramic mountain views while relaxing in the hot tub or gathering around the fire pit. The rooftop also offers potential for a sauna, creating an incredible outdoor retreat. The lower-level deck and raised garden beds provide the perfect space to relax, garden, and enjoy the outdoors. Built for comfort and efficiency, the home features a high-efficiency heat pump, HRV system, solar panel system, and EV charger, helping keep utility costs remarkably low. The unfinished basement is currently set up as a workshop and offers excellent potential for additional living space, with plumbing already roughed in for a future bathroom. Whether you're looking to add bedrooms, a recreation room, or additional living space, the possibilities are extensive. A rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive Fernie property with stunning views, low operating costs, and room to grow. (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.
