56 1386 NICOLA Street, Vancouver West, British Columbia

I just finished uploading this Condo for sale, 56 1386 NICOLA Street, Vancouver West, British Columbia

Circa 1912, The building's conception was a sought-after luxury apartment overlooking Kensington Meadows (now part of the Seawall parkland). If featured a water view roof top lounge, maid's quarters, dumb waiters and gentlement sitting rooms. The old-world charm is still reflected in the massive reception rooms, oak hardwood floors, 9' ceilings and crown mouldings. Suite 58 enters thru an impressive foyer that houses the central fireplace. There is an overall sense of a fine 'London Flat' within the generous rooms that are adorned with museum quality pieces from Three Centuries Antiques. You will find quiet elegance within both the formal dining room and the sumptuous sitting room. The kitchen has incorporated the original maid's quarters and is now modern but keeping within the atmosphere. There is a glimpse of the lovely trees that line Beach Avenue from both the south facing dining room and the second bedroom. Much more information available on line.
