Family Oriented

Outstanding covered land play opportunity. Rare re-development acquisition opportunity for just under half an acre of multifamily zoned residential development land. New architect renderings for three (3) new development options for townhomes and multifamily apartments with expansive city & lake views. One of the few redevelopment sites ever offered on the East Hill in Vernon. Excellent location, close to town, this rectangular 120 by 182-foot, 0.49-acre, 21,344 SF site with 117 ft of frontage and multiple rear laneway access points. The Lands come improved with a 5,909 square foot, 2-storey, multifamily conversion apartment building that produces good holding income with a suite mix of Five (5) 1-bedroom suites and five (5) studios. The building produces an annual gross income of $135,547.44 or $11,295.62 monthly with more near-term tenant turnovers anticipated to create significant rental increases. The building produces enough annual revenue to cover all expenses & provide a healthy net income over and above holding costs. The new MUS - Multi-unit: Small Scale zoning allows for a range of small-scale housing development up to 3 Storeys in Height, including detached, attached, and multi-unit housing on lots under 4,050 square meters (1 acre) Zoning permits up to 24 Dwelling Units per acre which makes the site suitable for 12 Strata Title Units. Property not in Heritage Registry. Foundation is poured concrete encased rock, interior finishes include painted wood panel with wainscot/chair railed areas and a mix of carpet, vinyl, laminate, hardwood & tile flooring. Don't miss this rare opportunity to secure a solid income producing asset with excellent redevelopment potential.

Highlights

  • Zoned Multi-Unit: Small Scale (MUS), which the listing says allows up to 3 storeys and multi-unit housing on lots under 1 acre.
  • The 0.49-acre (21,344 sq ft) lot has 117 ft of frontage and multiple rear laneway access points.
  • An existing 2-storey building has five 1-bedroom suites and five studios, with annual gross income of $135,547.44 per the listing.
  • Municipal water and sewer serve the property, and it is not in a City flood or wildfire hazard permit area.
  • Nearby: Vernon town centre 900 m, Vernon Civic Arena 920 m, and Vernon Jubilee Hospital 1.7 km.

Things to check

  • Ask for the rent roll, lease terms and actual expense figures, as the listing gives no expense amounts.
  • Ask the City which approvals a 12-unit strata project would need, as the renderings show three concept options.
  • Ask whether the five studios and five 1-bedroom suites are permitted, as the building is described as a multifamily conversion.
  • The City has a development application on file within about 400 m. See City of Vernon map facts for details.
