Description
This second-floor waterfront condo offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy low-maintenance living with stunning views of Kaslo Bay, Kootenay Lake, and the Purcell Mountains. A covered patio provides the perfect place to take in the scenery rain or shine, while a private boat slip makes it easy to spend your days on the water. The floor plan offers a spacious primary bedroom with a full ensuite, a versatile den that works well as a guest room, office, or hobby space, and an additional two-piece bathroom. Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, while in-suite laundry, secure underground parking, and a private storage locker add everyday convenience. Residents enjoy beautifully maintained common areas, furnished lobbies, a recreation room, and an outdoor hot tub. Whether you're relaxing on your covered patio, heading down to your boat, or taking a stroll along the lake, the setting encourages an active yet peaceful lifestyle. Just minutes from downtown Kaslo, the golf course, shops, restaurants, and a variety of hiking and recreational trails, this home is well suited to those looking for a full-time residence, a lock-and-leave vacation property, or a comfortable place to retire. Combining waterfront living with convenience and easy access to everything Kaslo has to offer, this is a property you'll enjoy in every season. (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.
