5751 CAPITOL DRIVE, Burnaby
$1,598,000
This 5,515.9 sqft property in Burnaby is a detached single-family home on a lot the new rules make suitable for a multiplex. Burnaby follows the provincial small-scale housing rules, so most single-family lots allow three to four homes, and lots near frequent transit can allow up to six. Burnaby's larger average lot size often makes the higher counts easier to lay out.
Fabulous corner lot in the highly desirable Capitol Hill neighbourhood! Situated on a rare 5,515 sq ft lot with an impressive 161 ft frontage, this home is perched on the high side of the street offering excellent curb appeal. Furnace replaced approximately 7 years ago. Conveniently located within walking distance to transit, Capitol Hill Elementary and Burnaby North Secondary. Easy one-bus access to Downtown Vancouver and SFU. Close to Kensington Shopping Centre. Property is being sold primarily for land value.
