Description
Conveniently located near parks and amenities, this charming and very well maintained century home boasts beautiful original wood finishings with thoughtful updates, including a heat pump. As soon as you enter you notice incredible wood panelling, doors, trim and sash windows looking just as good as they did in 1926! A functional layout with a mid century modern kitchen and eating bar adjacent to the amazing dining room complete with original built in wood china cabinet with exceptional storage. Though carpeted, real wood flooring is visible at floor level inside the china cabinet and air return vents. Three bedrooms and a nice sized bath and laundry room complete this one level home. Off the kitchen is a covered veranda with a cold storage cellar. There is a large level yard with garden area, two sheds, and a covered carport for parking. If you're tired of pressboard and plastic, consider this modest beauty that has stood the test of time and was built to last! (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.
