    Description

    Scenic building lot in the charming little city of Greenwood in the Boundary Region of BC. Greenwood is Canada's smallest city and known to have Canada's best drinking water!

    This lot is just under 50 feet wide and 233 feet deep, it is just over a quarter of an acre in size. The land is partially forested and backs onto Crown land.

    Municipal water and sewer, as well as power, are at the lot line. From the road, the land slopes upward to a flat bench. The owner had a driveway cut up to and elevated building site.

    The zoning allows for a house, 2 family house or semi detached. Carriage houses and suites are also allowed. In terms of building, the side setbacks are 5 feet, meaning you could have a house up to 39 feet wide. Depending on where the house was situated one could have a large private back yard and or a huge garden space all backing directly on to Crown land. One side looks out over the neighbor property (very private) and the other side has a double lot (house and outbuildings—one could naturally add a fence for cedar hedge for privacy).

    This is an excellent, affordable option for a serviced building lot. Contact the City of Greenwood for details on hookup charges and details.

    Area Data

    Greenwood is a charming little city, yes a city, actually it is Canada’s smallest city with just over 700 people. Here you will find over 60 historic buildings, some filled with city services like a small medical clinic, visitor centre, city hall, or post office, others containing amenities such as museums, a small independent grocery store (for sale), café, restaurant, pub and boutique shops. The city also has recreational facilities such as tennis courts, an outdoor pool and sports fields. What is common throughout the town is the best municipal drinking water in Canada. Greenwood’s history of good drinking water dates back to 1897 when the town’s location was purposely settled at the confluences of several mountain streams. Now a number of deep-water wells access the aquifers below and supply clean affordable and tasty water to its residents and visitors.

    Greenwood is the ideal location for retirees and recreational enthusiasts alike with its mild and pleasant climate and four distinct seasons. Summers are dry and hot and humidity is low, making the summer heat very pleasant. Winter typically lasts from mid-November through February, with December seeing the most significant snowfall but by March things are on the up and up and starting to green up
