Description
Here, home means morning coffee on the covered front porch, meals shared around the kitchen island, room to spread out when everyone is around, and summer afternoons that naturally move outdoors to the pool in your own backyard. At the centre of the main floor, the modern kitchen is designed for both daily routines and time together, with stainless appliances, a gas range, shaker cabinetry, and a breakfast bar island. The adjoining dining area keeps everyone connected, while the living room offers a comfortable place to settle in with the benefit of a gas furnace and ductless heat pump. A den, bedroom, and full bathroom on this level add valuable flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or changing family routines. Upstairs feels more private, with a spacious primary bedroom, a second bedroom with a walk-in closet, and another full bathroom. Downstairs, the unfinished lower level takes care of the practical side of home life with laundry and generous storage for everything from seasonal gear to hobbies and household extras. Then there’s the backyard. Fully fenced and generously sized, it’s a space you can truly use. Grow vegetables in the productive raised garden beds, cool off in the included above-ground pool, enjoy dinner on the deck with the convenience of a gas BBQ hookup, and keep tools and outdoor equipment organized in two garden sheds. Laneway access with a vehicle gate adds another layer of practicality. Updated PEX plumbing and wiring provide added peace of mind, while the ductless heat pump helps keep the home comfortable through the seasons. Set in a convenient North Alberni location, you’re just steps from the popular Kitsuksis Walkway and close to restaurants, shopping, and everyday amenities. It’s a home with room for the routines you already love - and plenty of space to create new ones. Reach out any time to arrange your private viewing. (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.
