A rare offering — one of only a handful of properties perched on a ridge with an unobstructed, endless view corridor blending Valley, Deer Lake, and Mountain vistas in one sweep. This 5-bedroom home sits on a premium site with dual frontage potential on Oakland and Elgin, giving buyers the flexibility to redevelop and fully capitalize on this unmatched position. Centrally located just 6 minutes from Metrotown's shops and restaurants, it offers the rare combination of a private, elevated retreat with everyday urban convenience. A true legacy lot for builders and view-seekers alike — opportunities like this rarely come to market.
