1761 WILLIAM STREET, Vancouver
$1,638,000
This 4,125 sqft property in Vancouver is a detached single-family home on a lot the new rules make suitable for a multiplex. In Vancouver, most single-family lots fall under the R1-1 zone, which allows a multiplex of up to six units on many lots, and more on larger or corner sites. The final count depends on lot area, frontage, and whether you keep any existing character home, so each lot should be checked against the city's rules.
PRIME COMMERCIAL DRIVE! Priced well below assessed value in one of East Vancouver's most walkable and vibrant neighbourhoods. This functional character home offers 3 self-contained units with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and approximately 2,050 sq. ft. of versatile living space, each with a separate entrance—ideal for investors, extended families, or owner-occupiers seeking rental income. Recent upgrades include a newer roof, high-efficiency furnace, and hot water tank. Detached double garage with potential driveway extension. Steps to Commercial Drive's shops, cafés, parks, schools, transit, and SkyTrain. Showings by appointment.

Land price per square foot is only one input. Frontage, lane access, slope, and how many homes the zoning actually allows decide what a lot is worth to a builder.
