Kits360 at 7th & Burrard
by Jenn Chic There’s something special about owning your own home — even more so if it’s in the heart of Kitsilano complete with stunning views of downtown, the Coast mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Wouldn’t you want to be one of the lucky homeowners moving in to a brand new condo at West 7th and Burrard at the end of this summer? After a day at the beach, come home and continue to enjoy the beauty of your surroundings. Expansive windows provide striking east views over the city and, when combined with open living areas, maximize natural light. Thoughtfully designed modern kitchens boast the perfect balance of luxury and practicality — high-gloss cabinetry, Miele appliances, and oversized Blanco sinks. With endless storage opportunities

and Australian laminate wood flooring throughout, this is West Coast living at its finest — and perhaps most comfortable. Whether you’re a first-time home buyer or looking to upgrade, there are a number of homes remaining on one of 11 awe-inspiring floors. Don’t miss your chance to purchase a studio (starting at $299,900), one-bedroom (starting at $399,900) or two-bedroom (starting at $599,900). For just 5% down, or as little as $14,995, you could be enjoying all the pleasures and natural beauty that Kitsilano has to offer. Building is nearing completion so visit the presentation centre at 1705 Burrard at W. 1st Avenue or call 604-737-0360 to find out more, and ask about current promotions. Open noon to 5pm every day except Friday.

THE DOWLING DIFFERENCE! Please call me for our “Monthly Market Report” on Vancouver, North Shore and Richmond. 2012 prices decreased 2.5% to 25%.

Fin out about our high end “Forensic Marketing System” perfected over 9 years and hundreds of sales. We “Target Market” our listings to “Identified Buyer Profiles” and we “Position” our properties to stand out from the rest of the competition.
