Almost 18,000 sf of medium density residential designated land presenting developers with tremendous future redevelopment opportunity.
A rare opportunity to acquire 100% freehold interest in “Twin Manor Apartments” located at 127 & 129 East 12th Street in North Vancouver, BC (the “Subject Property”), a potential medium-density multifamily redevelopment site in the heart of Central Lonsdale. The Subject Property is improved with two exceptionally well- maintained, adjacent, and connected apartment buildings situated on an almost 18,000 sf lot. The offering provides investors and developers secure holding income, current revenue upside, and an ideal site for a future rental apartment building development. Under North Vancouver’s recently adopted OCP, the Subject Property is designated as “R5 – Medium Density” which allows for a total density of 2.60 times the site area, equating to a potential buildable area of approximately 45,905 sf.
