Enjoy panoramic views from this 2 bedroom plus den corner suite at the wonderful Uptown building in Mount Pleasant. With a unique exposure perched high above the neighbourhood, this home stands out on account of its great views and light, excellent layout, and top-notch location.
The layout is excellent with two bedrooms, a large living and dining area, a smart open-plan kitchen, two bathrooms and a very large den/ storage room. The kitchen wraps around to the east side of the unit, creating a good balance of openness and separation.
The master bedroom is quite large, with a walk-in closet and a full en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has excellent light to the east with a large built-in closet. Directly across from the second bedroom is the main bathroom, with a large soaker tub.
Just off the entranceway is the large den/ storage room. This is a great spot for that private home office or all the sports and adventure gear.
This is a newer home with all the modern finishings you’d expect from a recent, high quality concrete mid-rise. Look for quartz composite countertops, custom millwork, stainless steel appliances, front loading laundry machines, European-style modern fixtures, custom tile work, custom finishing carpentry and designer paint and decorating.
The owners have installed some upgrades as well:
- Closet systems in both bedrooms
- Custom sheer roller blinds (the two bedrooms also have additional blackout blinds)
- Custom kitchen island and bench
- Wall mounted television/ media zone with professionally installed power source
Views are panoramic to the east, south, west, and even some to the north. This is a corner unit with extensive glazing and overlooks the largely single family neighbourhoods to the south. Overall, it’s a relatively high vantage point with views that feel like they go on forever.
From the living room there is also a good view of downtown and the North Shore mountains. To the west enjoy sunsets, to the east get up early to watch the sunrise over Mount Baker.
The location is top-notch with all the amenity the neighbourhood is known for within walking distance. Main Street shopping, restaurants, night spots, etc., are all just one block away. Everything is close by. You simply do not need a car at this location.
Olympic Village and the False Creek waterfront is just down the hill connecting you to the entire seawall from Kitsilano all the way around Stanley Park into Coal Harbour. Walking to Gastown and the downtown core is very reasonable from this location.
Transit is excellent from this location as well with east/ west routes intersecting north/ south routes at Main and Broadway. The Skytrain is just down the hill, a 15 minute walk. Biking is fantastic in all directions from this location with dedicated routes on Ontario Street and 10th Avenue.
Uptown is a newer (2013) concrete building of 102 units. The common areas show very nicely with a classic modern aesthetic. The pro-active strata does a fantastic job of keeping up the maintenance, evident the moment you walk onto the property. Enjoy common amenities including the roof top deck, meeting room, the gym, and the lounge room.
The building residents are described by the current owners as being super-friendly, with lots of young professionals and young families.
Rentals are welcome at the Uptown building, as are pets.This home includes one secure parking space. There is in-suite laundry too.
For those that like a great panoramic view with lots of light, the privacy of a corner unit, and a fantastic layout in a great neighbourhood, this is an excellent option. Come see us at our open houses, or contact us for a private showing.
