Description
Set on a private .73-acre oceanfront lot in North Nanaimo, this nearly 4,800 sq.ft. custom home pairs exceptional space with sweeping views across the Strait of Georgia. The main level offers expansive living and dining areas, an ocean-view kitchen and family room, office, and a refinished deck overlooking the sun-soaked yard. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with private deck, walk-in closet and 5-piece ensuite, plus an updated second bathroom and media/family room. The fully remodelled lower level adds a 5th bedroom, large rec room with new gas fireplace, den/gym and generous storage. Outside, enjoy mature landscaping and a 13-ft swim spa with motorized canopy. A substantial wood staircase, supported by concrete footings engineered into the bank, extends toward the waterfront; with restoration and rebuilding of sections, it offers unique possibilities along the slope. All this privacy and space, close to North Nanaimo’s shops, schools and amenities. (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.
