Description
Tucked into one of Kelowna's most walkable neighborhoods, 716 Lawson Avenue puts you minutes from downtown shops, restaurants, and the beach, the kind of location where you can leave the car parked all weekend. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has been thoughtfully updated over the years, so the big-ticket work is already done. Since 2014, the kitchen cabinets, windows, front door, flooring, appliances, and electrical have all been refreshed, along with an on-demand hot water system, added attic insulation, skylight tubes that pull natural light deep into the home and a gas fireplace insert for coziness in the living room. The roof was replaced in 2012. A bonus loft gives you flexibility — home office, studio, reading nook, or extra storage, it's yours to shape. Out front, a generous yard and private porch set the tone. Out back, a large deck overlooks a quiet yard that's ready for summer dinners, morning coffee, or kids and pets to roam. The real bonus: a self-contained 1 bed/1 bath in-law suite with separate entrance and laundry, ideal for extended family, guests, or mortgage-helping rental income. TS1 — New Transit Supportive Corridors designation. This forward looking zone was established to pre zone key corridors for higher density, mid rise housing, meaning this property carries serious long term development potential (subject to lot specifics and City approvals). Whether you're an investor, a builder, or a homeowner thinking generationally, that's a rare piece of upside to hold. Move in ready today and future ready for tomorrow. (id:63159)

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.
