Description

Here is a rare opportunity to own a large flat lot that has mature trees on the perimeter, water and power at the street and sewer just across the street. 3250 Metchosin Rd is a unique large 7551 Sq' level lot in a mature area that has been in the same family since the 60's. This R-1 zoned lot allows for a house with one secondary suite and one accessory dwelling unit. Added bonus, there are 2 sides already fenced with newer fences, a fire hydrant at the front corner of the property and a large tool shed. This is a great opportunity for a builder who wants to build what they want and not have to conform to what a new subdivision will want to see. Property information package is available upon request. Check out the brochure icon below for more property details and a detailed video. (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.

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.
