Heritage Meets Modern

If you’ve been looking for a quintessential Queen’s Park heritage home, one that has retained its magnificent vintage charm but has been updated for today’s modern family, then this stunning beauty in the heart of New Westminster’s most sought-after neighbourhood will not disappoint.

Welcome to the Sivewright House.

From the gabled roof and distinctive dormers to the covered front porch and fish-scale shingles, this lovely home with its classic lines and undeniable curb appeal was originally built in 1904 and has since been sensitively renovated.

Once inside this five bedroom, four full bathroom home you’ll find more than 3,000-square-foot of turn-key living space including a light-filled sunroom with leaded and bevelled glass windows off the foyer. The spacious main level with its 10-foot ceilings features a front sitting room that opens seamlessly to the living room with wood burning fireplace.

If, as they say, the kitchen is the heart of any home, then this is where your family will gather. With refinished wood cabinetry, quartz counters and a Professional Series Thermador gas range — this kitchen is ideal for cooking up a feast for family and friends.

For those more formal occasions, the adjoining dining room features original wainscotting, a built-in buffet with leaded glass and a charming window seat overlooking the front yard.

It doesn’t stop there, you’ll also find a 3-piece bathroom, mudroom, storage room and a large family room complete with gas fireplace and custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins with TV niche. This family hub opens to the private outdoor living space surrounded by lush landscaping and a tranquil water feature — it’s perfect place to unwind and entertain. There is also a hot tub, potting table, garden shed and workshop.

Head upstairs and you’ll fall in love with the second floor with four bedrooms and exposed Fir beams, including a large primary with 4-piece ensuite and a walk-in closet. There is also a second full bathroom, side-by-side washer and dryer and a cosy reading nook.

The basement level in this home offers even more living space with a full bathroom, kitchen, living room and bedroom. With a separate entrance, this space is perfect for a nanny, extended family or as a mortgage helper.

And the location of the house is ideal — it’s tucked away on the corner of Warren Avenue and Pearson Street just a few minutes walk from Queen’s Park, and within walking distance of shops, schools, the Farmer’s Market at Tipperary Park, transit and all the services that Uptown New Westminster has to offer.

This home is a rare find, so don’t miss this opportunity to make your move.
