Property Description ::
An absolutely stunning European built townhome with well crafted interiors that flow out to several outdoor areas including the panoramic city and water view deck. The sense of space defies the square footage as the Architect has cleverly maximized the principal living areas and further enhanced them by creating lofted spaces and visual connections throughout. The design choices are modern but certainly not minimalist - there are many classic interpretations but they all blend with most decorating styles. The home exudes comfort for all occasions and offers the flexibility of several alternative room arrangements. The present usage is two bedrooms, two dens, two full baths and an upper floor powder room. Each room has been partially or entirely upgraded and that is especially true in the skylit kitchen which features: Miele, Dacor, Subzero, Caesarstone counters and a gas feed to the Weber bbq on the deck. There is radiant hot water heating under the New Zealand wool carpets and most ceramic tiles. Thick hardwood flooring is used in most other areas including the large living room that has a lovely view of the North Shore. In addition to the interior spaces there is a private 9x21 garage with workbench, a large storage locker, common workshop, bike storage and a handy hotel-style gym shared by the three owners. The entire exterior has been recently painted and overall should be considered well maintained. At the time it was built several neighbours had commented on it's superior construction - and today the house is best described as "feeling solid". This is a rare combination of a magnificent property that has been correctly situated in a premium location. 2500 West 1st Avenue is perched at one of the highest and brightest points in Kitsilano and offers arguably the best city and water views that are beautifully framed by several 40 foot trees. This quiet block has minimal turnover and many ultra long term friendships. It has always been a favourite for pedestrian traffic who often stop to admire the homes and well kept landscapes. In fact, it is perfectly positioned within a quick walking distance to all fun and conveniences of West 4th Avenue, hip restaurants and of course Kits Beach! >>> Please Note: The convenience of the monthly strata fee is for most anticipated shared expenses such as civic garbage collection, water, most common power bills, gutter cleaning, general upkeep and the overall building insurance. These are the exact same costs that would have to be paid for any type of attached ownership. There are no additional bylaws and any strata communication is by informal methods and generally on an "as needed" basis.
