3977 FOREST STREET, Burnaby

$1,799,900

This 6,222 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.

This PRIME location, LARGE 6200 sqft+ lot (51 X 122) in Burnaby can be yours. Offering close to 1900 sqft of living space across two levels & perfectly situated close (but not to close) to Burnaby Hospital. This property is perfect for a growing family or investors looking to hold, redevelop or renovate. This 2 level home features a large living room, kitchen, dining room & 2 bedrooms + 1 bath upstairs along with a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom mortgage helper suite downstairs. The home is certainly livable but the value is in the prime flat lot. Located close to Cascade Elementary School, Moscrop High School, Metrotown Mall, Brentwood Mall, Central Park, Patterson & Joyce Skytrain Stations & Hwy 1 Access. Don't miss this opportunity!
