Description
The varied terrain provides multiple possible building sites, each offering its own unique outlook and sense of seclusion. A quiet, winding access road leads into the property, enhancing the feeling of being tucked away while remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities. A drilled well is already in place, providing a solid starting point for future plans, whether you envision a private estate, recreational retreat, or long-term investment. Despite the peaceful setting, you are just 20 minutes from the Comox Valley, offering a full range of amenities including hospital care, airport access, dining, theatre, and North Island College. Outdoor recreation is all around you. Nymph Falls Nature Park is just 6 km away, with river swimming, hiking, and mountain biking trails connecting through to Comox Lake. Enjoy year-round adventure at Mount Washington Alpine Resort, and explore the vast wilderness of Strathcona Provincial Park. Forbidden Plateau itself is well known for its extensive trail network for hiking, biking, and winter recreation. (id:63159)

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.
