Description
Welcome to a truly extraordinary opportunity—over 5 acres of walk-on oceanfront where natural beauty and boundless potential meet. Located along the peaceful shoreline of the Georgia Strait, this captivating property features 150 feet of private beachfront, panoramic views of the Coast Mountain Range, and a forested landscape of towering old-growth fir trees. A winding driveway meanders through the lush forest canopy, leading to a three-level oceanfront structure perched just above the shoreline. Previously a 3-bedroom home with a basement suite, the building has been stripped to the studs and is currently at “lock-up” stage, offering a solid foundation for a custom redesign. Included in the sale is a replacement window package by Milgard, providing the perfect opportunity to frame breathtaking coastal vistas and fill your future home with natural light. There is existing infrastructure, including: Two wells — a shallow well and a new drilled well (2022), the original septic system, and power connected to the homesite. Zoned RU-20, the parcel allows for two full single-family dwellings, offering remarkable flexibility. A strategically cleared and positioned building site awaits —ideal for a second residence, guesthouse, or spacious workshop. Offered at land value and sold “as is, where is,” this property presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a blank canvas in a serene and private setting. With unmatched natural surroundings, existing services, and development potential, it’s a rare chance to create the waterfront estate of your dreams. Opportunities like this are vanishingly rare—don’t miss your moment to own a piece of West Coast paradise. (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.
