Description
Just 10 minutes from Fort St. John, this exceptional 160-acre offering blends agricultural opportunity with peaceful country living. With a history as a productive cattle ranch, the property features approximately 110 acres in grass, is fully fenced and cross-fenced, includes five dugouts, and offers an excellent setup for livestock or hobby farming. The thoughtfully designed 3-bed, 3-bath rancher offers over 3,500 sq ft with soaring 12' ceilings, vaulted living areas, an open kitchen, radiant in-floor heat, and large windows that fill the home with natural light. A 30x40 shop with a 10x10 OH door, a wood stove, and an attached lean-to; a secondary residence with renovation potential; a large garden; and a beautiful rural setting complete this remarkable acreage.

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.
