    Description

    We are a little family of three - myself, my toddler son and our Golden Retriever.

    We live in a family friendly suburb just outside of Vancouver - equally beautiful, but less chaotic. Centrally located in a very walkable neighborhood, surrounded by tranquil trails, the shores of Rocky Point and the iconic Brewers Row. You will have your own bedroom with ensuite bathroom, closet space and shared access to the large patio and fully furnished apartment. The building is complete with a gym, theatre room, shared work lounge and a landscaped courtyard with communal BBQ's, outdoor seating and a children's play area.
