Description

This Little Red Cabin is set on a private half-acre lot in Hornby’s upper Sandpiper area, offering a peaceful setting and privacy from the road. Inside, the cabin features an open food preparation and living space, two bedrooms, and the essentials for simple island living. Its simplicity is part of the appeal, providing an uncomplicated place to slow down and unwind. A Pacific Energy wood stove keeps the cabin warm and cozy through the cooler months, while the spacious deck is a wonderful spot to enjoy sunny afternoons and quiet evenings outdoors. A designated bathroom space includes a sink and self-contained toilet for nighttime convenience, although the cabin does not currently have running water. A separate outhouse is located outside. Whether your days are spent at the beach, mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, or exploring Hornby’s vibrant artisan community, this property is an affordable opportunity to enjoy the relaxed pace and natural beauty of island life.

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.
