Description

Discover a premier development opportunity or an expansive private estate located at 171 Snowsell Street North in North Glenmore. This 0.634 acre property is currently zoned RU1 and offers exceptional potential for future density. Preliminary discussions with architects and city representatives indicate potential for a four or five lot subdivision. These lots could potentially host single family homes, side by side duplexes with suites, or be structured as a bare land strata. Please be advised that all development potential and subdivision options are subject to final approval and must be confirmed directly with the City of Kelowna. The existing 1983 built residence features four bedrooms and four bathrooms, serving as a comfortable home or a strategic holding property. The grounds are truly special, featuring a manicured backyard with bridges and ponds that offer a peaceful retreat. The location is ideal for families and investors alike, situated near North Glenmore Elementary, Doctor Knox Middle School, and numerous hiking trails. It is also conveniently located just a short drive from the University of British Columbia Okanagan and the Kelowna International Airport. This property represents a rare chance to acquire a large parcel with diverse future uses in a highly sought after Kelowna neighborhood. (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.
