- Commercial Drive - location! location! location! Go out the front door and step onto "the Drive" which hosts a world of funky cafe's, boutiques, restaurants, great people-watching and so much more.
- The building also houses Prado Cafe - one of Vancouver's coolest coffee spots!
- The "Highland" building is aprx. 100 years old and was a former hotel at one time. It's very charming w. brick exterior, wide Oak stairwells inside, high ceilings, Oak doors, gorgeous WOOD FLOORS throughout and some lovely Oak wood molding treatment.
- 2nd floor suite facing west onto The Drive.
- Junior 1 bedroom suite in a gorgeous heritage-style building; it has amazing residents (grad students, social workers, engineers, gardeners, actors, talent agents, high tech, artists...all very nice, respectful and mature).
- Enjoy a big CLAWFOOT TUB, a great layout, a bright kitchen with newer cabinets, counters and appliances and tile flooring.
- the kitchen has a separate little dining area.
- TONS of natural light, large living room and a separate sleeping area (queen bed, dresser, etc.)...BUT NOTE: the bedroom area is OPEN to the living room. Some put a partition while others leave open.
- Some beautiful built-in shelving in the dining room. If you need a closed-off and separate bedroom, this is not for you!
- The on-site caretaker has been there for 15 years+ and keeps the building clean, secure and quiet. Many residents have been there 5 years, 10 and 15+ years as they love-it!
- There is a bike room.
- Rent includes heat and hot water.
- NO SMOKING!!
- Due to this being a 100 year old character building, parking is on the street.
- Some pets welcome, very sorry, no dogs.
- If interested and if you like, please reply as 'the drive' and tell a bit about you (ie. where moving from and working, how long at both, when available to view, etc.).
