Description
Now listed at $799,900. Big lot. Big house. Big options. This large 4+ bedroom, 4 bathroom home sits on a flat 0.52-acre R3-zoned corner lot across from the current Cowichan District Hospital, with a vacant 1-bedroom suite, excellent parking, RV space, and room for future plans. The main level offers approximately 2,100 sq. ft. with updated flooring, multiple living areas, a spacious kitchen, and many bedrooms with bathroom access. The layout works well for a large family, extended family, rental use, shared living, or a potential care-home-style setup, subject to buyer verification and approvals. Outside is where this property really separates itself. There is room for vehicles, family, tenants, work trucks, RVs, and long-term ideas. Survey work has been completed, selective tree removal has been done, and the sellers have paid North Cowichan toward the proposed subdivision process for two additional lots. Live in it, rent it, hold it, or explore the future potential. Half-acre corner lots with R3 zoning, suite potential, parking, and this much flexibility are not exactly falling out of the sky. Main floor is tenant occupied. Lower suite is vacant. Please allow 24 hours’ notice for showings. (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.
