Description

Welcome to Unit 408 at Nelson Commons, a bright top-floor retreat set above the energy of downtown Nelson. From the moment you step inside, the home draws you toward expansive views of the city, and surrounding mountains. High windows, warm wood-toned floors, modern finishes, and custom built-ins create an atmosphere that feels polished, comfortable, and easy to live in. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms are featured in a layout that creates privacy for the owner and guests. The covered balcony offers a peaceful place to enjoy morning coffee, evening drinks, and the changing lights of the city. Approximately 860 square feet in size, the home combines high ceilings and contemporary style with the quiet appeal of being on the top floor. Outside your door, the Kootenay Co-op, cafés, restaurants, markets, and everyday amenities are all within an easy walk. This is a home that lets you enjoy the best of Nelson’s vibrant downtown lifestyle while still having a calm and private place to come home to. (id:63159)

Amenities

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.
