Description

Welcome to 1271 McKenzie Street, a character-filled home where timeless details meet thoughtful modern updates. The open-concept main floor connects the living, dining and kitchen spaces beneath striking post-and-beam ceilings, complemented by a wood-burning fireplace, stained glass windows, wood flooring and custom built-in cabinetry with wine storage. The showstopper kitchen pairs exposed brick with granite countertops, gas appliances, a Sub-Zero fridge and Miele dishwasher. Upstairs offers three bedrooms and two updated bathrooms, while a heat pump provides year-round comfort. A separate one-bedroom suite accommodation adds valuable flexibility. Outside, a south-facing two-level deck captures Olympic Mountain views, overlooking a private Zen-inspired backyard with hot tub and gas fireplace surrounded by lush greenery and approximately a dozen olive trees. All just minutes to Cook Street Village, Beacon Hill Park, Dallas Road and Clover Point. (id:63159)

Location Accessibility

Our own metric — not an official Walk Score®.

Amenities

6/9 categories nearby

Transit

Not enough data yet

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.
