Description
Don’t let the age fool you. This beautifully renovated home feels fresh, stylish and move-in ready while retaining thoughtful mid-century character. Set on a spacious 0.30-acre lot, it offers exceptional outdoor living, flexible space and a wonderful connection to the coast. Ocean views can be enjoyed from the kitchen, dining room, living room and large deck, creating a beautiful backdrop to everyday living and entertaining. Inside, the bright main living areas feature hardwood floors, crown moulding and 2 gas fireplaces. The renovated kitchen is both functional and stylish with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, gas range and custom hand-blown glass pendant lights. Bathrooms have also been fully updated, while a Trane heat pump and furnace, Rinnai on-demand hot water and water softener add comfort and efficiency. The lower level provides generous additional living and recreation space, with a bedroom, family room, bathroom and excellent storage. It works beautifully for guests, teens or extended family as it is, while also offering future suite potential. Outside, the fully fenced yard has been professionally landscaped with mature and newer trees, flower beds, raised vegetable gardens, pear, peach and apple trees, a large garden shed, and partial drip irrigation. Multiple outdoor living spaces include 2 patios and the large deck, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, watching cruise ships pass and enjoying the sunsets. A large concrete pad provides RV parking or a great spot for basketball, hockey or backyard fun, while the attached double garage adds even more practicality. The location makes it easy to enjoy the West Coast lifestyle, with the Breakwater Beach Trail just a 4-minute walk away, or a 10-minute walk to the Sunray beach access stairs leading to the sandy French Creek beaches. Marina, golf, schools, shopping, recreation and everyday amenities are also close by. See my website for further details: www.pqhomes.ca (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.
