Description
Privately perched on a sun-lit 0.83-acre south-facing property, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom West Coast home offers a rare blend of practical space, character, and convenience. Complete with an oversized detached garage and available for immediate possession, this is an exceptional opportunity to embrace island living at its finest. Offering approximately 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the semi-open floor plan features both a welcoming living room and a comfortable family room. Each flows effortlessly onto expansive front sundecks, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living and providing the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or simply taking in the surrounding trees. The detached workshop has been divided into a dedicated workroom and garage space, providing endless possibilities for hobbies, creative pursuits, storage, or home-based projects. Serviced by piped water and ideally situated in a central mid-island location, the property enjoys the best of both worlds: a natural and rural setting with everyday amenities close at hand. Beautiful Cusheon Lake is just a short stroll away, while town is only four minutes by car. If you've ever imagined waking among the treetops in your own private home, this property captures that feeling perfectly. (id:63159)

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
