Description
Life by the beach in Oak Bay! 218 Beach Dr pairs classic character with an easy coastal lifestyle, set on a sunny 9,000 sqft corner lot just steps from the beach. Ocean views, mature landscaping and a private garden with fruit trees create a beautiful and private setting. The bright kitchen features stainless appliances and opens to a sunny deck, perfect for morning coffee or evening unwinding. Upstairs, the primary suite captures lovely water views and offers a walk in closet plus a spa inspired ensuite with heated marble floors, clawfoot tub, double vanity and shower. A second upper bedroom makes a charming nursery, office or guest room. The main level adds two beds and a full bath with heated floors and jetted tub. Downstairs, the fully self contained two bedroom suite has its own sunny patio, making it a valuable mortgage helper. A double garage, metal roof, gas furnace, on demand hot water, vinyl windows, French doors and refinished hardwood complete this rare seaside offering. (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.
