Description
Welcome Home! This charming log 2 bed, 3 bath home is a mere hop, skip, and jump (less than 5 minutes!) from the beach and Nile Creek. It flaunts a kitchen so spacious, you'd think it was designed for a cooking show, complete with walnut-finished cabinets and a kitchen island perfect for dishing out family feasts. Whether you're basking in summer's sun or snug as a bug in winter, the living space has you covered with a ductless heat pump and a cozy woodstove, plus some trusty baseboards. Upstairs, you'll find bedrooms that are like a dream come true, each with walk-in closets and ensuites, and the primary bedroom even boasts a private deck for those blissful morning coffee moments. For visiting guests there is a two piece bathroom combined with laundry for convenience. Need more space? No worries! There's a guest studio outside with extra storage to boot. Got a swanky ride? Fear not! A 30 x 28 workshop with an over-height door stands ready for your prized possession, and it's as clean and tidy as a whistle. Plus, there are a few other outbuildings for your garden gadgets and a wood shed. The .61-acre lot is your private fenced paradise, with ample room for kids, pets, and a plethora of veggie gardens. A few fruit trees are already putting down roots, too. And if you're itching for a little retail therapy or a caffeine fix, a quick drive will whisk you to a delightful strip of shops featuring a grocery store, charming coffee shop, library, gift shop, art store, building and pet supplies, and even a legion.

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.
