Realtor's description
Every direction is the right direction at this updated corner home in Kits. The exposure is southwest, with a greenhouse style bay window that lets the sun pour into the home, perfectly diffused after filtering through a grove of multicoloured Japanese maples. The generously sized bedrooms are tucked into the north side of the home for sleeping conditions as cool as the wood slat accent wall in the primary. The kitchen, with new cabinets, countertops and appliances, looks over the dining area and onto the oversized south facing patio. The location? Easy. Just past the great cafe, next to the better cafe. If you find yourself at the nearly complete Arbutus SkyTrain station, a two minute walk south, or amongst the bustling shops of West 4th, a one minute walk north, you've gone too far. Any further you will be at Kits Beach, which is ofcourse just down the hill. Home is as much the neighbourhood as the four walls of a building. Open House: Saturday October 10th at 12-130pm
