Description

A Once-in-a-Generation Opportunity. Positioned on what is widely regarded as one of the MOST PRESTIGIOUS streets in the country, 1550 Blanca presents a rare and compelling opportunity to secure a TROPHY ADDRESS at a fraction of its full potential. Surrounded by ARCHITECTURAL MASTERPIECES -each commanding values in excess of $50 million-this property offers a chance to create a LEGACY ESTATE within an elite enclave.The existing approximately 6,000 sq.ft. residence provides an exceptional foundation for a world-class renovation. With a thoughtfully considered design vision already in place, this is a true "CANVAS" property-ready to be transformed into an incredible modern estate that reflects both personal taste and long-term value.Offered at $17,300,000, the opportunity becomes even more compelling when considering the upside: invest $5-$7 million into a refined, luxury renovation and position yourself within a neighbourhood where surrounding properties command double the total INVESTMENT.

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.
