Description
This two-level, 1 bedroom (potential for 2) Gastown loft sits on one of the best blocks in the city, with 18-foot ceilings, exposed original brick and concrete, and gorgeous views of Burrard Inlet and the North Shore mountains. The living room anchors the main level around a fireplace with custom floating storage units on both sides and a custom mantle, the flex room (or 2nd bedroom) with its own custom wall unit, all by Union Wood Co. Full bath on the main. Upstairs: one bedroom and full bath. Custom linen window coverings and motorized roller blinds. Gastown offers the best cafes, restaurants and cocktail bars, and more all amongst Victorian architecture and cobblestone streets. Above it all, a shared rooftop patio offers picturesque sunsets. A statement for the design driven. (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.
