Description

Opportunity in Qualicum Beach. Set on over half an acre of level, usable land, 247 Huson Rd offers a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a serviced parcel with future build potential. In the Nanoose Bay to Bowser corridor, half-acre parcels typically trade in the $400,000–$550,000 range, while fully serviced, build-ready lots often reach $650,000–$750,000 once water, septic, hydro, and site preparation are complete. This property already benefits from key services in place, including connection to the Bow Horn Lake water system, a newer septic system, and electrical service—representing a meaningful cost and time advantage over raw land. The property includes an existing de-registered manufactured home and a detached workshop with separate electrical service, providing flexibility for buyers planning their next steps. The existing home could offer interim accommodation during the planning or building process, subject to buyer verification and intended use. Located just minutes from town, beaches, golf, and trails, this is a strong opportunity to secure a serviced property in a desirable rural setting with long-term potential. (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.
