Testimonial: "I was very pleasantly surprised. When I saw the pics of the view on your site I expected that they made the view look much better than it is. I was not prepared for how much better it turned out to be. I really enjoyed lying on the couch watching the boats come and go from False Creek. The location in relation to the rest of the city could not be better. Everything I needed was within a short walking distance. Half a block to the seawall, with a real beach within another block or two--it doesn't get any better than that. The condo itself was nicely furnished, clean and well-maintained. Everything worked, the kitchen was fully stocked with cooking utensils, etc. You should be hearing from me again!" SF, Virginia
Testimonial: "Frankly, I don't think anything could be better..we even walked past some of the other places we'd considered in different neighborhoods and this one and always said, "our place is better!" I usually have trouble sleeping and the bed combined with the breeze and the city sounds had me sleeping better than I have in years!" SB, Texas
Testimonial: "We had a terrific time in Vancouver and really enjoyed staying in your lovely apartment. Now back in London, I am really missing your Vancouver view. We kept watch on the neighbourhood heron with the excellent binoculars. We would certainly return to your condo." ES, UK

Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Vancouver
We live in a rural area in the US and have always seen Vancouver as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. This is our second home and is short distance away from our primary home but a world away.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
The West End is spectacularly beautiful with easy access to the entire city. The city is very cosmopolitan with especially a strong Asian community. We bike everyday we are here, either around Stanley Park or around the Sea Wall to either Coal Harbor or around False Creek or up to UBC. A great place to visit.
