Description
Discover a rare investment opportunity or the perfect mortgage-helper lifestyle in the heart of Nelson with this unique, side-by-side duplex located at 308 and 310 Carbonate Street. Boasting a fantastic central location just two blocks from Nelson’s vibrant downtown core, this 2,194-square-foot property is perfectly split across both units and sits on a large 5,880-square-foot lot. The building showcases classic architecture, framed by a landscaped front yard with mature trees, stone-accented garden beds, and an elevated concrete stairway leading up to welcoming, covered front porches. Inside, both units feature highly functional layouts consisting of two spacious bedrooms and one full bathroom. Character shines throughout the interior spaces, which are highlighted by soaring high ceilings, and large classic windows that flood the rooms with natural light. Unit 310 has been freshly painted and has original wood flooring. It is currently vacant, offering an exceptional, immediate opportunity for a buyer to move right in and live on one side while enjoying the steady rental income from the investment side at 308, or simply set your own market rent with a brand-new tenant. Complete with massive, highly practical under-unit storage spaces in the basements and private rear patios, this funky character home is an absolute gem. (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.
