Welcome to 551 Willow Ave in Carragana, SK. A 460 sq. ft. four season cabin offering full year-round comfort with running water (hauled from Porcupine Plain water station, tote, hoses, and pump included) and sewer service. Inside, the cabin comes fully equipped with essential appliances including a propane cooktop, microwave, washer, dryer, and refrigerator, along with all kitchen necessities such as utensils, dishes, pots, and pans. A tabletop propane BBQ is ready for use with either a separate tank or cabin hookup. The living room features a leather sofa and hide-a-bed, complemented by oak cabinetry that provides excellent storage. Durable linoleum flooring runs throughout, and large windows fill the space with natural light. The main bedroom includes a full/double bed with storage, while the three-piece bathroom offers a walk-in shower. Additional conveniences include central vacuum, air conditioning, and a second bathroom with exterior access—currently used for storage but easily converted into another bedroom or two-piece bath. The property offers exciting potential for future enhancements such as a rooftop deck, expanded entrance deck, or additional structures. A wired 10' x 15' “Bunkie” is ready for development, ideal for extra sleeping space or storage. Utilities include two 500-lb propane tanks supplying heat, stove fuel, and hot water. Monthly power averages just $25, annual taxes are $431, and winter propane costs are approximately $300. With a 100-amp electrical service, there is ample capacity for a garage, shop, or future upgrades. Perfect for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts, the cabin is located near groomed quadding and snowmobile trails, surrounded by beautiful scenery, abundant wildlife, and peaceful privacy. Wild raspberries and asparagus grow naturally around the lot, and Porcupine Plain is only 12 km away. Whether you’re seeking a seasonal getaway or a full-time home, this charming cabin is ready to welcome you—call today to book your viewing. (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.
