Description
BUILDERS & DEVELOPERS ALERT! Rare opportunity to secure a waterfront lot in the heart of Sooke’s town core. This private .46-acre panhandle property offers approximately 70 feet of ocean frontage and is surrounded by newer high-end homes. The gently sloping terrain is perfectly suited for a rancher with a walkout basement or a two-storey design to capture sweeping views. A roughed-in switchback path provides convenient beach access. With sewer and municipal water at the lot line, this site is ready for your vision—whether it’s a custom dream home or a revenue-generating waterfront investment. Just steps to a waterfront park, boardwalk, local shops, restaurants, and transit, the location can’t be beat. Updated zoning under Bill 44 and SSMUH legislation allows for up to 4 units (buyers to verify directly with the District of Sooke). A spectacular development or lifestyle opportunity awaits!

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.
