Fascinating property available in the community of Climax. This distinctive property has an interesting past and a bright future. Formerly the RCMP Office for the community, this building has been converted to living space. Originally designed as a relocatable office, the building is unique as individual prebuilt pods. The entryway with its distinctive “bubble window” adds a creative style and opens to the large living room. A private bedroom, with large windows is attached at the back of this space. A kitchen was made up at the front of the building and a large 3pc bath and laundry room with storage, follows down the hall. There are two former jail cells that have been born again into two bedrooms, and the office space is set with a built in desk. The attached single garage has a large storage room attached (10’x12’10”). The building is set up on a modest crawl space and heated with two separate natural gas furnaces. The space is designed to have a natural gas hot water heater (no hot water heater is currently working) and has central air plumbed to the furnace. The location of the property is high profile directly on Highway #13 as you come into town and consists of 0.48 acres of land. Designed with paved driveways there is a large, paved parking pad with electrical outlets for winter parking (camper trailer not included) . The central air conditioning unit is encased in a chain-link fence that would make a dandy dog run. Building is being sold “AS IS, WHERE IS” including contents. (id:65958)

Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Pick a down payment and tap any underlined number to edit. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Monthly carrying costs (shared)
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Accelerated bi-weekly frequency reduces total interest paid vs. monthly — confirm with a broker. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy. Always validate with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
