West Vancouver is home to a wide assortment of houses, modern and heritage alike. And sometimes, you'll come across an abode that's a little bit of both.
One such property sits at 1308 28th Street, just a stone's throw away from Dundarave Beach and the waters of the Burrard Inlet.
The property was originally built in 1925, which means it's getting close to celebrating its 100th birthday. But, you'd be hard-pressed to find any traces of the home's age, thanks to numerous improvements over its extensive history.
The home boasts five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 3,403 sq. ft of living space atop a 8,008 sq. ft lot, which includes a good amount of outdoor space. The property is currently on the market for $3,428,000.

For years, West Vancouver has had the distinct honour of being -- by a fairly large margin -- the wealthiest community in all of Canada, in terms of average household net worth. According to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver, as of April 2023, the benchmark price for single-detached homes in West Vancouver sits at $3,019,500.
The home was designed with an open floor plan layout, with living spaces opening into the dining area, and the dining area directly leading to the wonderful airy kitchen.

On the lower level of the home, you'll find another large living space, plus a private office, a self-contained kitchen, and two additional bedrooms.
Both floors include sprawling balconies that extend nearly the full width of the house, with panoramic views of the Burrard Inlet and Vancouver in abundance.
Our Favourite Thing
The balconies are perfect. They run around a majority of the back side of the home, which faces out towards the Burrard Inlet, the University of British Columbia, and Vancouver, and the elevated viewpoints provide views that would be hard to top.
Outside the home is also a sizeable patio space overlooking the well-landscaped yard, which includes additional lounge spaces and plenty of grass for kids and pets. The home is also equipped with a two-car garage, as well as a sizeable driveway with enough space for several vehicles.
Overall, the home is modern, yet maintains historic character, and is in a prime location surrounded by an abundance of beautiful natural landscapes and community amenities. In other words, it's quintessentially "West Vancouver."
