Condo penthouses typically get us thinking about large suites perched high up in a downtown skyscraper. But for those multi-million-dollar buyers who are looking to purchase in quieter neighbourhoods — and live closer to the ground — there are still plenty of luxury penthouse options out there to choose from.
Kerrisdale is a mostly residential neighbourhood in Vancouver’s south-west area, characterized by its tree-lined streets and collection of shops in Kerrisdale Village. Here, you’ll find one corner penthouse suite in a boutique-sized building that doesn’t skimp on the high-end finishes.
Unit 501 is the largest and only remaining penthouse at The Kirkland near East Boulevard and W 46th Avenue. Built in 2019, this two-bedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom suite contains 1,694 square feet of living space and a private 360-square-foot terrace with northwest views to enjoy.
The most recent pricing data on BuzzBuzzHome has Unit 501 last listed at $2,688,000.
From the front entryway, you’ll be greeted by a conveniently tucked away laundry area and the powder room. Down a corridor, the penthouse extends into an open-concept living, dining and kitchen area that’s finished with warm engineered hardwood floors.
Overlooking the dining space with room for an eight-seater table, the kitchen features quartz countertops with a matching backsplash, Sub-Zero appliances and a waterfall island with seating.
A pair of double doors from the living room provide access onto the wraparound terrace, which offers enough room for a barbecue and a small dining table.
Hang a left and you’ll find the principal bedroom suite. Pick out your favourite designer wares from the walk-in closet with built-in organizers and touch up your foundation at the designated makeup area. The ensuite bathroom is fitted with in-floor heating for ultimate comfort, along with dual vanities and a relaxing soaker tub. The penthouse’s second bedroom is located on the opposite side of the unit, complete with its own walk-in closet and bathroom.
According to the MLS listing, Unit 501 also comes with two parking spaces and a storage locker. Developed by The Bogner Group, The Kirkland was built on the site of the former Kirkland Metal Shop, which dated back to the 1920s. The Kirkalnd integrated the original facade of the shop into its five-storey design with the help of Rositch Hemphill Architects.
The latest information from BuzzBuzzHome shows that pricing at The Kirkland begins from $2,580,000.
