The big sell: This turn-of-the-century house is located in the heart of Vancouver’s Strathcona neighbourhood near the corner of Dunlevy Avenue and Hastings Street, and offers more than 3,300 square feet of living space over three levels as well as a large unfinished attic currently used for storage that could provide additional accommodation if completed. With a nod to its 1900s origins, some character features remain from that era including wood floors, high ceilings, and detailed window and door trim. It offers three self-contained units — two two-bedroom suites, and one three-bedroom suite — that together provide a current income stream of $4,200 per month ($50,400 per year). All three units have useful front and rear access, and the fenced and gated 3,050-square-foot lot comes with open parking for two vehicles at the back of the property.
