Attention Investors and Visionaries! This rare land assembly or holding property offers unique dual-frontage access from both 16th and 17th Avenue—a developer's dream for multifamily housing. Currently, the residence is configured into three functional suites (two 2-bedroom and one 1-bedroom), each featuring a private kitchen to maximize rental yield or provide a substantial mortgage helper. Situated in the heart of a vibrant community, you are steps away from gourmet dining, transit, and essential services. Most notably, this home sits within the prestigious catchment of Lord Byng Secondary and Queen Elizabeth Elementary, both just a short stroll away. With UBC only a 10-minute transit ride from your door, the location is unbeatable for long-term appreciation.
