House 8,891 sqft lot 4 parking 2 fireplaces Freehold NonStrata RS-1 zone

Rarely available oversized 43.5' x 204' lot (approx 8,891 sqft), over twice the size of a standard East Vancouver lot. A private, well-kept retreat for those who love gardening, space and tranquility, and a unique opportunity for builders. The main level offers 3 bedrooms up, hardwood floors, a gas fireplace and a fully renovated bathroom, opening to a large covered deck overlooking the sun-drenched, south-facing yard. A 2 bedroom basement that opens to a patio and peaceful gardens with upper and lower fish ponds connected by a stream, raised garden beds and mature trees. A true backyard oasis in the city. Lovingly maintained, with over $200k in updates in recent years, including a new roof (house & garage), A/C, furnace, renovated upstairs bath, a Miele washer & dryer, and a new fridge.
