714 12th St Courtenay, British Columbia V9N 1V4

$499,000

Opportunity truly knocks at 714 12th Street, a rare chance to secure a centrally located property in one of Courtenay’s most desirable walkable neighborhoods. This solid 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home sits on a level city lot with the unique advantage of double frontage—facing 12th Street and backing onto 13th Avenue. Nestled in a quiet, family-friendly area, you’ll enjoy being only steps away from downtown shops, schools, parks, and public transit. The real value lies not just in the home but in the newly updated R-SSMUH zoning (Residential Small-Scale Multi-Unit Housing), which opens the door to exciting possibilities. Whether it’s adding a small secondary home in the back, creating additional rental units, or exploring future redevelopment, this property provides flexibility for both homeowners and savvy investors. Inside, the house has retained much of its character, including classic cove ceilings and recently updated window glass throughout. The layout is functional, but the home is ready for some cosmetic refreshes, making it a perfect project for someone with vision, paintbrushes, and renovation skills. Restore the existing charm, redesign for modern living, or reimagine the lot entirely—this is your chance to shape a property with strong future upside. For those looking to get into the market, it’s a great starting point with built-in potential. For investors, it’s a strategic holding property in a high-demand area. And for developers, it’s an opportunity to maximize a lot with central access and progressive zoning. Properties like this—central, versatile, and brimming with possibility—don’t come up often. Don’t miss your chance to be part of Courtenay’s growing future at 714 12th Street. (id:46156)
