Description

Renovated Rockheights home with legal 2-bed suite! The open concept main floor is made for entertaining, flooded with natural light and showcasing built-in shelving and custom wet bar. The updated kitchen opens directly onto a tree-lined, south-facing 500 sqft deck complete with outdoor kitchen and smart fridge. Versatile floor plan: generous 4 bed+den / 4 bath main home AND legal 2 bed/ 1 bath suite with add’l soundproofing, laundry, outdoor space, and parking. Modern updates throughout: flooring, paint, trim, kitchens, baths, electrical, in-floor heating, fireplace and lighting. Highlights include a wired detached studio, dual frontage w/ two driveways, garage, and carport. Backing onto a quiet lane, you're just steps from Memorial Park playground and a weekly farmer’s market. Walking distance to top schools, local shops, cafes, and pubs. This is a 2-unit strata that feels like a detached residence, with separate footprints and a small stretch of party wall between finished spaces. (id:63159)

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.
