Why rent when you can own on an almost 1/5 acre lot? This bright, freshly painted 2-bed home is the perfect smart start. Live on the main, build out the lower level over time, garden in a yard with your own fruit, and enjoy being able to walk to VIU, shops, and schools. With lane access for a future garage or carriage house, this home works for you today and invests in your tomorrow.
Lower level is equipped with a cozy wood stove, an install-ready bathroom, and is ready for your vision: family room, 3rd bedroom, office, or whatever suits your needs.
The 8,694 sq ft lot with rear lane access in a prime rental location steps to VIU, schools & University Village Mall. Explore future carriage house potential or a complete redevelopment (buyer to confirm with City).
Whether you're starting out, raising a family, or looking at long-term investment and development potential, this one checks all the boxes.
This opportunity won't last long.
