Come Home to Queen’s Park
Custom built in 1993, this one-owner home boasts an impressive 4,300 square feet of family friendly living space with five bedrooms and three and a half baths.
Situated on an idyllic lot backing onto coveted Sullivan Park — a treasure in the heart of New Westminster’s historic Queen’s Park neighbourhood — this home offers 1,765 square feet of living space on the main level alone. From the wide foyer with 9-ft barrel ceiling to the formal living room with wood burning fireplace and adjoining dining room to the home office, the layout of the this home is superb.
The light-filled kitchen with large centre island was made for gathering and flows seamlessly to the eating area and family room complete with a gas fireplace and built-in cabinetry. This family hub opens through double French doors to an outdoor patio and beautiful mature gardens.
A mud room and laundry room complete the main level.
Head upstairs and you’ll find four bedrooms and two full baths, including a large primary bedroom with built-in window seat, loads of closet space and a beautiful spa-like 6-piece ensuite with walk-in shower and soaker tub.
The kids will enjoy their bedrooms, each open to a private shared porch perfect for summertime sleepovers under the stars.
Also on second level is cosy study, art or sitting space.
Downstairs offers a recreation room with wet bar, full bathroom, large bedroom, storage and separate entry. Need a nanny suite or mortgage helper? This space offers great options for both.
And if a garage is on your must-have list, then the two-car detached with lane access should do the trick. This one even has pottery studio (would also make a great home office overlooking the park).
This architecturally designed home was built for generations to come using 2 by 6 construction, solid 3/4-inch plywood, ridged foam overlay on slab for added comfort and it was seismically upgraded using anchor bolts to the home’s foundation. Other features include hardwood floors, extensive millwork throughout, built-ins, two fireplaces and air conditioning to name a few.
If you’ve been on the hunt for the perfect family home, one that is within walking distance of schools, shops, services, parks and transit, then look no further than 217 Third Avenue.
Welcome home.
