Description

Great property for a mullti-generational family, holding/development property or an opportunity for TWO families to pool together and buy into a property for less then purchasing a condo each. This up down duplex is perfectly set up as a rental building with 3 hydro meters, coin operated common laundry, updated kitchens, bathrooms, windows, electrical and plumbing. The roof was done approx 23 years ago. New water line from the city and new vinyl plank floors up and down about 5 years ago. The carport has a parking space for each unit as well as a separate storage locker for each unit. The carport could be framed in to be a garage if needed to add value and the current driveway could also be widened to accommodate 2 cars side by side if more parking is required. The back yard has a concrete base walls under the fencing for longevity of the fencing. The back fence has been replaced since the photos were taken. Check out the property video for more details.

Transit

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.
