Description
The crown jewel of Grand Boulevard, this iconic Edwardian home was built in 1912 for the Reeve of North Vancouver. Towering and unique, it captivates with soaring ceilings, a grand staircase, leaded glass, and hardwood floors with period inlay. Generous principal rooms, elegant pocket doors, and wood-burning fireplaces whisper stories of a bygone era. With five bedrooms, a rare two-level garden suite in the former servant´s quarters, and a recently updated kitchen and bathroom, the layout offers remarkable flexibility for families or multi-generational living. On the quiet side of Grand Blvd, private, lush gardens envelop the home, creating a quiet retreat just five blocks from vibrant Lonsdale. More than a residence, this is a living piece of North Vancouver´s rich history. (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.

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
