Description
Hood Point West is one of Bowen´s most tightly held WATERFRONT communities, where offerings like this are rare. Perched above Howe Sound in the UNESCO Biosphere and with timeless ocean views, the home sits nearly equidistant between tennis courts and the shoreline. Days unfold with ease: morning matches, forest walks, and quiet evenings whale watching from the deck. Tucked away off a quiet cul-de-sac, the charming setting sets the tone. From the detached 2-car garage, a wooden bridge crosses a creek to a level, tree-lined path, creating a private, tranquil approach. Inside, living spaces are oriented to the view, with clear vertical grain fir windows, doors, and trim adding warmth throughout. A double-sided fireplace separates the intimate living room from the open kitchen, dining, and den, all flowing to 1800+ sf of decking. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a balcony and 5-piece ensuite, alongside a mezzanine flex space. This is a home that pairs thoughtful design with distinguished oceanfront living. (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.
