Description

Properties like this are becoming increasingly rare on Vancouver Island. Perched atop 1.2 acres in the charming seaside community of Chemainus, this exceptional property captures panoramic ocean & mountain views, incredible natural surroundings & endless future potential. Located just minutes from everyday amenities, local shops, restaurants, golf & the renowned Chemainus Theatre, this is an opportunity to create something truly special in one of the Island’s most welcoming coastal communities. The existing home requires significant renovation, but the layout, solid bones & unmatched setting provide an outstanding canvas for the right buyer. The upper level offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, spacious living & dining areas, large picture windows & a sprawling deck designed to take full advantage of the breathtaking scenery. Downstairs, the in-law suite configuration provides flexibility for extended family living, guest accommodation, or future redevelopment ideas. The property itself is the true highlight — featuring striking natural rock outcroppings, mature landscaping, a greenhouse, abundant parking & space to bring your vision to life. The neighbouring parcel is also available for purchase separately or together, creating even greater long-term potential. A rare offering where the location, views & opportunity speak for themselves.

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.
