522 E CORDOVA STREET, Vancouver

$1,100,000

This 3,050 sqft property in Vancouver is a detached single-family home on a lot the new rules make suitable for a multiplex. In Vancouver, most single-family lots fall under the R1-1 zone, which allows a multiplex of up to six units on many lots, and more on larger or corner sites. The final count depends on lot area, frontage, and whether you keep any existing character home, so each lot should be checked against the city's rules.
