The big sell: Listing agent Janette Fricker reports that this one-bedroom home in Fairview’s Landmark Caesar building has several desirable features that appealed to the buyers: a corner-unit position with plenty of natural light, a 400-plus-square-foot patio with a flowerbed border containing established plants and trees, new carpet in the bedroom and fresh paintwork throughout. The complex’s convenient location between Granville and Oak streets was also an attractive factor with transit and shops within walking distance, as well as proximity to bike lanes. Other highlights include wood floors in the living area, a galley-style kitchen, free shared laundry, and a building that had a new roof in 2014 and an upgraded elevator in 2016. The unit comes with parking and a locker and a monthly maintenance fee of $316.88. The strata permits rentals with restrictions and the building comprises 20 units that are divided over three levels.
