Description
Set on a private 5-acre parcel on Gabriola Island, this well-laid-out 1,677 sq. ft. 2-bedroom plus den home offers a balance of privacy and convenience close to local amenities. The wood-sided home with a metal roof is centrally located near the golf course, cidery, and island trail network. A winding driveway leads you through the property and opens into a circular drive, with a detached 22' x 20' garage/workshop providing excellent space for storage or projects. Inside, the functional layout is ideal for everyday living. The main level features a spacious kitchen with ample counter space, flowing into the dining area with sliding doors that open onto the patio—perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The living room is warmed by a propane stove and offers peaceful views over the surrounding forest and clearings. This level also includes a den or office, a laundry room with sink, and a 2-piece bathroom. Upstairs, you’ll find a generously sized primary bedroom with plenty of storage, a second bedroom, and a large bathroom. The level acreage offers a mix of open and treed areas with established paths throughout, creating a private and usable landscape. There are plum trees, a garden area with room to expand, and a natural pond that fills seasonally in the winter months. The property is serviced by a well and septic system. Full Information package, virtual tour and floor plans available. Buyers to verify all information that is deemed important. (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.
