Description
This 680 sq ft 1-bedroom, 1-bath top floor suite offers forest views and a peaceful place to call home. The upper level has large windows and skylights, and a wraparound covered deck.

Situated on Lot #2 of a 5-lot bare land strata (21.87 acres), the property features 2.5 acres of partially forested land. Enjoy shared access to scenic trails, an established orchard with apples, pears and peaches and a large community garden. New and barely used septic system, gravity fed community water system, and 200amp service with buried lines make this cozy home move in ready. Recent upgrades include new flooring and new exterior siding. Located close to community dock, groceries, post office, community hall and more. (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.
