Description
A peaceful and private 8.7 acres within a short stroll to the Tsolum River trails and swimming spots. Featuring two homes, a workshop, studio space, gardens and space to unwind. The main 4 bedroom farmhouse-style home has a warm, timeless feel, with quality wood finishes and a thoughtful layout. French doors open from the bright dining area to an expansive wrap-around deck. This home was built with energy efficiency and self-sufficiency in mind, with robust insulation, a wood-cookstove, heat-pump and generous storage space on each floor. The 2000+ sqft, 2 story, cottage-style workshop is ready for your projects or home-based business. The second, 2 bed home is rich with character and extensively updated: Open concept, bright and stylish.

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.
