Property Description ::
1010 HOWE is a twelve story reinforced concrete development that was built to higher commercial grade standard. Later it was converted to a mix of ground floor retail space with 130 upper floor condominiums. Presently, there is a decoration upgrade being conducted in most common areas including the hallways, elevators, and the 2nd floor exercise room with it's gigantic common sundeck. Downtown-dwellers have always appreciated the proximity to the Central Business District, high-end shopping, trendy food markets, outstanding restaurants and all the hot spots. Suite 809 is truly special as the original floor plan was brilliant but bland. Dramatic extra over-height ceilings are set off by the inset halogen lighting system that runs throughout the condo. Even the door frames and kitchen pass through have been further heighten to make them appear more substantial. The south facing windows are covered with attractive translucent roller blinds while the main flooring is now humble polished concrete. The bathroom fittings has been replaced with hi-end, low flush fixtures. The kitchen has been redesigned and renovated with new cupboards, counters, cook-top, convection microwave, double sink, and a unique opportunity for a vent-less washer/dryer combo. The condo has larger-than-average sunny balcony - making this a perfect pied de terre, first time purchase, or an excellent addition to a savvy rental portfolio. There is a storage locker and shared laundry area on each floor. The well run complex keeps strata fees affordable, allows most pets/rentals and there is generally opportunity for monthly on-site parking rental. The present owner can accomodate most moving dates
