Transit-Oriented Area — Tier 3
~680 m from Holdom SkyTrain station
Provincial law requires the city to allow at least 3.0 FAR and 8 storeys for residential here — well above typical single-family zoning. Potential land-assembly interest from developers.
Multiplex potential: on a ~635 m² lot, BC’s small-scale housing law requires the municipality to allow at least 4 units (up to 6 near frequent transit), where it applies.
~680 m straight-line to Holdom SkyTrain
Screening estimate from provincial regulations (TOA station points, B.C. Reg. 263/2023 & 265/2023; small-scale multi-unit housing rules). Distances are straight-line; actual TOA maps are set by municipal bylaw and some parcels (heritage, ALR, exempt areas) are excluded. Confirm with the municipality before relying on it.
Not in the Agricultural Land Reserve.

ALR from the Agricultural Land Commission via DataBC (point check at the listing’s mapped location). Flood plain is the listing brokerage’s disclosure. Confirm both with the municipality and your lawyer.
