Description

This spacious ground-floor home is ready for your renovation ideas. Tailor this space to your taste while enjoying one of the home´s most outstanding features - the outdoor space. The large private patio opens onto a lush green area that feels like your own backyard. With only two ground-level residences in the building, this green space offers a unique sense of openness that is seldom found in condo living. Ideal for downsizers who want to remain in Kerrisdale. Located in one of the area's few concrete buildings, you'll appreciate the solid construction, generous room sizes, and exceptional walkability to shops, cafes, restaurants, and everyday amenities. A wonderful opportunity to add value and create something special. (id:63159)

Transit

5 stop(s) within 800m

How this is calculated

Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.

Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.

Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.
