Description

Located on a quiet, desirable street in Westsyde and backing onto the greenery of Westsyde Elementary, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, space and location. The large lot is beautifully manicured and filled with mature landscaping, creating a private, park like setting. Enjoy the inground pool with diving board, expansive stone patio, upper deck overlooking the yard, gated front patio and full irrigation. The backyard is accessible from both sides, with a gate at the back leading directly to the school field. A detached shed/coop, generous storage and double garage round out the exterior. The main floor offers a spacious living room with floor to ceiling windows that bring the yard into view. A connected kitchen, spacious family room, dedicated laundry and 2pc bathroom complete the main living space. Three bedrooms and a large 5pc bathroom with double sinks are located on the opposite side of the home. Downstairs offers excellent flexibility with a separate entrance, kitchen, bedroom, den, 3pc bathroom and large rec room with outside access, making this the perfect space for extended family, guests or added income potential. With its exceptional lot, mature landscaping, pool and private setting backing onto the school grounds, this is a very special Westsyde property in a location that's hard to beat. (id:63159)

Location Accessibility

Our own metric — not an official Walk Score®.

Amenities

26

3/9 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.
