Property Details for 1617 W Grand Boulevard

A rare opportunity to reimagine an iconic Grand Boulevard home.

Generous rooms and 5 bedrooms create an exceptional canvas for a buyer inspired to bring vision to a special residence. The flexible layout includes a rare two level garden suite in the former servant’s quarters, ideal for extended family or rental income. Set on the quiet side of Grand Boulevard, it offers a large, private front yard just five blocks from vibrant Lonsdale. Well maintained and ready for thoughtful updates, this is a rare opportunity to become part of North Vancouver history.
