3865 SANDELL STREET, Burnaby
$1,195,000
This 3,500 sqft property in Burnaby is a detached single-family home on a lot the new rules make suitable for a multiplex. Burnaby follows the provincial small-scale housing rules, so most single-family lots allow three to four homes, and lots near frequent transit can allow up to six. Burnaby's larger average lot size often makes the higher counts easier to lay out.
Amazing opportunity to build in a highly sought-after location! 3500 sf lot with back lane. Potential for long-term hold and future redevelopment. Ideally situated just 656.58 metres from Patterson SkyTrain Station, this property is located within a provincially designated Transit-Oriented Area (TOA) Tier 3. Under new B.C. legislation, the site is pre-zoned for higher density, offering a streamlined path for developers and investors. Back lane access provides additional flexibility with potential to build up to a 6-unit home (buyer to verify). Capitalize on strong demand for transit-oriented living, just minutes to SkyTrain and the vibrant Metrotown neighbourhood, Central Park and Crystal Mall. Sold “as is”.
