In the 1960s, beachside Kitsilano was Vancouver's hippy hangout, drawing comparisons to San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury. Kitsilano still has plenty of culture, but its apartments and houses are now occupied by young urban professionals and families who enjoy a modern version of that relaxed atmosphere. Just over the Burrard Bridge from the downtown peninsula, the neighborhood brings together a collection of attractions, beach and parks, residential streets, and a couple of main commercial districts. If you're lucky enough to live in Kits, you get to enjoy all this-plus the fabulous location bonus of being minutes from downtown or UBC-all within an easy distance of your front door. Today’s Kits is a combination of the eco- and hippie-spirit of its past and 21st century gentrification, emblematized in the neighborhood’s organic markets, multicultural restaurants, and shops.
Brick walls give the apartment a modern vintage atmosphere while the large windows allow for plenty of natural light. With reclaimed wood floor and under floor heating, you will always feel comfortable even on Vancouver's rainiest days. The bar that parts the kitchen from the living room makes it the perfect apartment for throwing any type of party or event. The open space and high ceilings of the living room allows for creative placement of furniture and decorations to cater to your taste.
