Property Description

This one is NOT for the faint of heart but it's a heck of a development opportunity! Just around the corner from the historic Nob Hill park, adjacent the old city quarter and just minutes away from every transportation option to the mainland you'll find 528 Hecate St. Sitting on a 6,336 sq ft corner lot with R15 Old City Medium Density Residential zoning in place, this property opens the door for redevelopment ideas in an area that continues to evolve. Although the current home has been boarded up for safety, the opportunity here is all about the land, location, and future potential. A demolition quote is available for buyers looking to start fresh. If bringing this 1911 home back to life IS possible there's currently over 2,800 square feet of structure on site plus an additional unauthorized dwelling at the rear of the property. This is definitely a project… but for the right buyer, builder, or developer, there may be an exciting opportunity to reimagine this property entirely.

Buyer Decision Support

Before You Buy This Property

The listing tells you what the home looks like. Good due diligence helps you understand what you are actually buying. Depending on the property, servicing, title, renovations, drainage, strata documents and other details can materially affect the decision.

I built the Vancouver Island Property Due Diligence Lab to help you work through the questions worth asking before you get too far into the process.
