Douglas Park Address

593 west 20th, Vancouver West, BC, V5Z 1X8, Canada

Description

One of the first "Van Specials" ever built and consistently requested for
the Annual City Heritage Tour. Just one block from Douglas Park and
across from Edith Cavell too! If you know the area you have probably
admired this house from the street because of its thoughtful upgrade of a
Vancouver classic.

This home has undergone a massive renovation over the last decade
maximizing the FULL potential of these terrific floor plans.
The lower floor offers an enormous rec/music and exercise space for the
current owners. There is a beautifully finished spa bathroom and even a
big laundry room with hanging area and top of the line sxs w/d. The rear
of the main floor is a suite with an updated kitchen, charming french
doors, all new bathroom and another laundry room too. Great for revenue
but also a great office or teen space if you kept the whole house.
Upstairs has refinished top nailed rift cut inlaid white oak floors and
the open charming space you expect from a late 60's van special but this
is where you really get to appreciate some more of the updates to the
home. Double glazed wood trimmed french windows look out onto the
gardens with ivy peeking in... Double french doors gives the Living Room
and great connection with the outdoors. The fireplace (upstairs and
downstairs) has been converted to gas and Re-fronted with an earthen
stacked slate. Oversized bevelled mirror wall and gorgeous barrel dining
light give the dining room an elegant warmth too.
The kitchen is a huge space... A chefs dream. It has been totally redone
with white shaker cabinets, gorgeous micro tile backsplash and ss
appliances but also offers and informal eating bar and amazing outlook
and connection to the extremely private oversized deck. A pergola with
grapevines wraps the back half allowing you and your guest to dine and
chat in peace.
As expected there are also 3 good sized bedrooms including the big Master
at the front of the house. There is also a large family bath that is
fitted with restoration hardware spa finishings and a deep soaker tub.

The outside is COMPLETELY landscaped and fenced front to back and has to
be seen to be appreciated.

A very SPECIAL van special :)
