There is a wood-burning fireplace in the living room bordered by glass display cabinets, an adjacent formal dining room, and a renovated kitchen with Shaker-style cabinets and a french door to the outside deck. Two bedrooms reside on the main level while two additional bedrooms are found upstairs alongside a flexible space, and the lowest level contains a two-bedroom suite.

The big sell: This top-floor corner suite forms part of Westhaven, a 40-unit, low-rise building located on West 16th Avenue in Vancouver’s Cambie district.

The kitchen has stainless-steel appliances and a skylight, and there is a sizable 13-foot-long walk-in closet off the bedroom, as well as the ease of insuite laundry.
