That new listing I got at 318-2320 West 4oth in Kerrisdale?  Have you seen the new page created just for it?  Check it out at http://agentwill.com/318-2320-west-40th/

I can’t stress how cool a place this is.  Kerrisdale is one of the most charming neighbourhoods in the city (the “most charming” according to the Kerrisdale Business Improvement Association) and this is one of the best looking one bedroom suites I have ever been in.  The building, aptly named Manor Gardens, was completed in 1979 but definitely is not dated like many from that era.  Its brick facade, archways, and plentiful flora give it a warm sense of home and character sadly lacking from many buildings that exist in Vancouver.

Inside is simply gorgeous and is touched with a sense “old world charm” along every square inch of the 560 Sq.ft..  Being open plan (ie lacking walls which would break up a suite and create a claustrophobic sensation amongst many) breathes a sense of space and purpose.  The purpose?  Enjoyment.  Pure, simple enjoyment.

An on those days when you want to be outside you just head one block over to 41st where all the shops, cafes, bitros, and services you could need reside among one of the most pleasant village streets in the city.  Then there’s also the Kerrisdale Arena for skating in the winter or taking kids to in the summer.

A storage locker is included, as is parking.  But will you even use your car?  If you don’t have one, no worries.  There are bus routes a block or two away to go to UBC, East, or downtown.  More likely you’ll just use them to get to work or school.  When home I’d be surprised to find you inside (as nice as it is).

Of course, if you did decide to spend the day in or to entertain at night you’d be doing it in style.  And there is a balcony that can fit good sized BBQ and a few friends to enjoy the afternoon sun.  Don’t worry about it getting too hot (I know the past few days have been terrific) as the West facing balcony has a treed outlook providing shade and privacy.

So what are you waiting for?  Go take a look and let me know what you think.  There’s a video and lots of photography produced by Arbutus Design (click here for them) as well as a listing feature sheet.  You can check out all the details by clicking the link above or here.
