2849 HIGHBURY STREET, Vancouver
$3,800,000
This 5,500 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.
VIEWS! Unique Point Grey gem perched high on Highbury Street. This 50x110 R1-1 lot with character home offers rare breathtaking panoramic city, mountain & ocean views. First time on the market in 50 years. Incredible views on every level, including from the 2-bed garden suite. Original oak hardwood & fir floors, wood-burning fireplace, and timeless character throughout. Enjoy the home as is or seize an exceptional opportunity to build your dream home in this rare West Point Grey location. Proximity to Jericho Beach, Spanish Banks, Pacific Spirit Park, Lord Byng, Queen Mary, WPGA & UBC. One of a kind offering that must be seen to be truly appreciated.
