Nestled on a quiet, low traffic Southside street, this move in ready bungalow offers a rare blend of mature trees, privacy, and a location that’s hard to beat. In a slower inventory market, opportunities like this don’t come up often—snagging a spot here is something special. Step inside to an open concept main floor filled with natural light and a cohesive modern color palette. The living room overlooks the peaceful street and flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area, highlighted by a large L shaped island with added storage and a built in wine rack. The kitchen features dark cabinetry, Arborite countertops, soft close drawers, a composite sink, and plenty of recessed lighting. Down the hall you’ll find two bedrooms and a fully renovated 4 piece bathroom. The spacious 19 x 10 primary bedroom offers flexibility—enjoy it as an oversized retreat or reconfigure to create a third main floor bedroom. The lower level includes a generous family room, an additional bedroom, a 3 piece bathroom, and plenty of storage. Notable updates throughout the home include PVC windows, updated doors, trim, casings, baseboards, flooring, and two renovated bathrooms. Shingles are approximately 10 years old, with central air and the energy efficient furnace updated around 2014. Outside, the fully fenced yard has been recently landscaped and features a large deck, updated sidewalks and driveway, and planter boxes—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Ideally situated close to the Chinook Pathway, Chinook Golf Course, Co-op grocery, liquor store, and gas station, and located on the same side of the city as the S3 arenas, Fairview Pool, and Fairview School—this is a location that truly checks all the boxes.

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
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.
