Property Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a true piece of Vancouver history, The Vault is a landmark 1914 heritage conversion transformed into an exclusive collection of just six residences. This is the opposite of cookie-cutter condo living — a 2 bedroom + loft home (ideal 3rd bedroom or office) offering a flexible, character-rich layout for buyers who value uniqueness and architectural charm. Featuring warm wood floors, extensive high-quality renovations, and a striking pot-belly gas fireplace, this home blends timeless heritage character with modern comfort. The spectacular 511 sq ft private rooftop terrace — rarely found in heritage properties — offers a private outdoor retreat for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing above a streetscape of classic character homes. Approximately $160K in thoughtful upgrades including kitchen, bathrooms, electrical, windows, and finishes make this a truly turnkey home. Exceptionally well-cared-for boutique strata with a strong community feel and pride of ownership. Steps to the best of Commercial Drive.
