Description
585 1st Street is a special Sointula property, offered with the bonus of an additional lot at 577 1st Street for a combined 0.49 acres directly across from the ocean. This bright 2 bed, 2 bath home was originally built in 1937, with major renovations completed in 2006 including a custom kitchen & fir flooring throughout the upper level. The open living area captures beautiful views up Broughton Strait, while a large sunny, private deck makes the most of the setting. A brand new metal roof has been installed & deck repairs are nearing completion. Two wood stoves provide cozy heat with electric baseboards as backup. An unfinished basement, large workshop & covered storage add plenty of practical space. Outside are two garden areas with raised beds, established perennials, apple & plum trees. With no homes between you & the ocean, forest behind & an additional 0.16-acre R3-zoned lot, this is a property best appreciated in person. (id:63159)

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.
