Description
Situated at 176 Jacobson Road, this property sits in one of Princeton’s most desirable neighborhoods. Perched above downtown, the flat, fully usable 1.26-acre parcel offers privacy and clear views down Bridge Street and toward the Tulameen River. The home provides a practical layout featuring two bedrooms on the main level, one bedroom below, large south-facing windows for natural light, and a generous viewing deck. The structure has solid bones but requires a complete interior renovation. This is a clear value-add opportunity for first-time buyers or relocating professionals looking to build immediate sweat equity by installing modern updates and finishes tailored to their standards. The location balances acreage with daily convenience, sitting minutes from downtown amenities, local schools, and Princeton General Hospital. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to the Tulameen and Similkameen rivers and the Kettle Valley Rail Trail. If you want a strategic investment or a customizable home base in a premier Princeton location, this property delivers the space and layout to make it happen. (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.

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.
