8611 RIDEAU DRIVE, Richmond

$1,750,000

This 9,604 sqft property in Richmond is a detached single-family home on a lot the new rules make suitable for a multiplex. Richmond applies the provincial small-scale housing rules, so most single-family lots allow three to four homes, and up to six near frequent transit. Richmond's flat, regular lots often make the layout simpler than in hillier cities.

A rare opportunity in Richmond’s sought-after Saunders neighbourhood. Sitting on an impressive 9,600+ sqft. lot, 8611 Rideau Drive offers the kind of land, space and flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find. The existing 6-bed, 3-bath home provides a functional layout for families today, while the expansive lot opens the door to renovate, reimagine or build your future vision. Enjoy a generous backyard, ample parking and the privacy that comes with one of the larger properties in the neighbourhood. Saunders is known for its quiet, established residential streets and convenient access to schools, parks, shopping and everyday amenities. This is a compelling chance to secure a substantial piece of Richmond real estate. Bring your ideas and unlock the potential of 8611 Rideau Drive.
