About this page: a public-record page assembled from publicly available data sources, cited below. Figures labelled "LandIntelVal" and "Estimated property tax" are our calculations based on a stated methodology — not appraisals, official assessments, or tax bills. BC Assessment determines official valuations and classifications using its own methodology, which may differ from ours. Property owners can submit corrections.

Valuation & taxes

LandIntelVal is our independent, market-based estimate. Land is built up from three parts: a base building-site value, additional acreage at a rural per-acre rate, and — for waterfront lots — a premium for each measured metre of actual shoreline, tiered by water type (ocean shoreline is valued well above lake, river, marsh, or creek). Those rates are calibrated against real Denman sale prices (credibility-blended with assessment-derived rates where sales are thin). Buildings are valued at the greater of BC Assessment's building value and a measured-footprint replacement cost, where the replacement rate is itself derived from BC Assessment (the median building value per m² of footprint across Denman), so under-reported improvements are surfaced. It is not an appraisal, not an official valuation, and is not used by any regulatory body; BC Assessment uses different methodology and may value this property substantially differently.

Estimated property tax is calculated from the publicly available 2025 rural rates for Jurisdiction 771 (CVRD Electoral Area A) including Denman service-area levies, applied to the current BC Assessment value assuming Class 01 (Residential). The actual bill may differ based on property classification, exemptions (Home Owner Grant, deferments), and supplementary assessments. This is not a tax bill. [rate source]

Building siting & setbacks

The nearest substantial building on this lot sits about 0 m from the closest lot line, measured from satellite building footprints against the parcel boundary. The side/rear lot-line setback for this zone is 4.572 m; the front setback is 12.192 m.

This building appears to sit within that minimum setback. This is a measurement, not a determination of non-compliance: the structure may legally pre-date the bylaw (non-conforming), may be an accessory building or boundary that follows different rules, and satellite footprints and parcel lines each carry a few metres of uncertainty. Front-yard (road) and sea setbacks are larger and assessed separately. For the authoritative position, consult the Islands Trust. Spotted an error? Report a correction.
