ABOUT OUR HOME


This three-storey, upscale duplex features 3 bedrooms plus loft/den for a total of 1700 square feet of indoor space. Outdoors there's a large and private front yard, and a third-floor balcony with ocean view. All three storeys are above grade/ground level.

This home is laid out perfectly for a couple or family that wants extra space for offices, guests or play area. Its unique loft architecture combines modern style with plenty of character and lots of sunlight.

And its location is perfect for both nature-lovers and active urbanites. Meander through tree-lined streets to two of Vancouver's most beautiful beaches. Or whip up to the corner for a top-notch latte, a wide range of boutiques, and quick bus access to downtown or UBC.

Please review these pages for more details on the house and location, or email us to discuss availability.
