Description
This exquisite 0.57-acre walk-on waterfront property offers a rare blend of seclusion, comfort, and timeless craftsmanship. Accessible by boat, Ruxton is an off-grid gem nestled between Vancouver Island and the mainland where the pace slows, and nature takes centre stage. The home itself is solid and refined a 3-bedroom + den retreat built to an exceptional standard, designed to weather the seasons with grace. Inside, you'll find warm, inviting spaces and panoramic views that blur the lines between indoors and out. Your gaze will constantly be drawn the ocean from nearly every room. Wake up to the sound of waves lapping the shore, sip your coffee on the deck as seals glide by, and end your day with a sky full of stars and the soft hush of the tide. This is more than a property it’s a lifestyle rooted in tranquility, peace, and presence. An extraordinary offering for those ready to unplug, unwind, and truly arrive. Verify all measurements and data if 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.

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.
