A rare opportunity in the heart of Fernie, this versatile property combines a generous 0.20-acre lot, Commercial Highway zoning and outstanding future potential. Set on a 60' x 150' parcel with incredible mountain views, the property is within easy reach of downtown amenities, the highway corridor and all the outdoor recreation Fernie is known for. The existing home offers a functional open-concept kitchen, dining and living area, along with three bedrooms and one bathroom. A full-height unfinished basement provides excellent storage and houses the furnace and hot water tank, which was replaced in 2021. The home is serviced by a 100-amp electrical panel. Outside, the expansive yard creates plenty of room to bring your ideas to life, while a detached garage is conveniently accessed from the rear lane. Buyers may choose to renovate or expand the existing home, investigate subdivision or carriage house potential, pursue a future condo-hotel, commercial or mixed-use concept, or create a new dream home, subject to City of Fernie approvals and zoning requirements. Properties offering this combination of lot size, location, mountain views and flexibility are rarely available in the downtown Fernie area. An exceptional opportunity for homeowners, builders or investors ready to unlock its full potential. This property is being sold as-is where-is.
