Description
Tucked away on a private 6.1-acre panhandle lot, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers space, privacy, and a peaceful rural feel just minutes from downtown Duncan. With approximately 1,971 sq ft of living space, the home has a comfortable, practical layout with room for family, guests, hobbies, or a home office. The home ready for your decorating ideas, but important updates have already been completed, including plumbing, electrical, and windows in 2010, a newer roof within the past few years, and a new WETT-certified wood stove. A great big deck extends the living space outdoors and gives you a place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the quiet setting. The land is treed, private, and tucked away from the road, creating the kind of natural buffer buyers hope for in an acreage. The trees add to the privacy and setting, and may also offer additional value for a buyer interested in exploring selective logging or land clearing, subject to professional and municipal review. The property also includes an old tennis court that could be restored, reimagined, or brought back to life as a recreation space. Maybe a place for a pool? With municipal water, A2 zoning, existing residential use, and room to garden, explore, or plan for future use subject to municipal confirmation, this is a rare opportunity to secure a larger acreage property in the Duncan/North Cowichan area. A special offering for someone looking for land, privacy, and long-term flexibility without being far from the convenience of town. (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.
