Description
14,400 sq ft near Swan Lake - an exceptional lot with room to dream. Set on a quiet, no-exit street, this property offers rare space and privacy so close to Uptown. The solid 1950s home has been lovingly cared for by one family for 60 years, offering a fantastic opportunity to renovate, add on, or explore future potential. Upgrades over the years include heat pump (A/C) and a 2023 hot water tank. 4 beds, 1.5 baths, plus a functional basement for storage or a workshop. The huge backyard with mature apple trees and garden beds offers endless possibilities for the outdoor enthusiast or gardener to create their own sanctuary. Walk to Swan Lake trails, minutes to Uptown shopping, and the Galloping Goose Trail is near by. Land and location like this rarely come available at this price. (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.
