Description
Exceptional opportunity for builders, investors, or handy buyers looking to create value. Situated on a quiet no-through road in quiet neighborhood, this nearly double-sized 9,292 sq.ft. (.21-acre) lot is cleared and ready for your vision. The existing home is an 3 bedroom 1 bath rancher at 1100 sq.ft. It has been completely stripped to the studs, with all, interior, attic, and crawlspace debris materials removed, providing a clean starting point for renovation or redevelopment. LDR (Low Density Residential) zoning offers excellent flexibility, permitting two-unit dwellings, attached or detached secondary suites, and multi-unit or row-house development of up to four units (buyer to verify). Short-term rentals are also permitted under the current zoning. Within walking distance of downtown, shopping, schools, and recreation, this is a rare chance to build equity or unlock the property's full development potential in a convenient in-town location.

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.
