Description
This is a home where family memories are made. Located in sought-after North Nanaimo, directly across from McGirr Elementary and a short walk to Dover Bay Secondary — arguably Nanaimo's two best public schools. The main level offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a sunken living room perfect for everyday connection. From the kitchen, primary bedroom, and deck, take in breathtaking Salish Sea views. Imagine starting each day with the sunrise over the water. Downstairs, a bright, full 2-bedroom in-law suite enjoys the same stunning ocean views, plus a bonus room that could be a third bedroom. The backyard is ready for years of enjoyment — pool deck, raised garden beds, high-producing fruit trees, berry bushes, and space to gather. Loved for over 20 years. Ready for its next chapter.

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.
