Description
Ocean views and exciting potential in this mid-century fixer-upper! Set on a quiet cul-de-sac, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home enjoys views over Shingle Bay, out toward Swanson Channel and across to Gulf Islands National Park. The main level offers easy one-level living, with all three bedrooms, two bathrooms and laundry conveniently located on the same floor. With its mid-century character, the home is ready for a new owner to restore its original style or live there and make improvements over time. The lower level provides generous space for a workshop, studio with ocean view and walk-out to deck and storage. A metal roof and heat pump are already in place. On Magic Lake water and septic. Located close to walking trails, ocean access and low-cost moorage at Thieves Bay Marina, this is an opportunity to restore this unique island home in a peaceful setting. (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.
