A Look Inside: This Metrotown condo has a great view and crazy amenities

Sitting in one of the nicest buildings that Burnaby has to offer, this one bedroom, one bath condo may not be the most spacious, but it more than makes up for it with its expansive view.

With a full vantage of Vancouver’s mountains to the north, a sprawling Burnaby underneath, and Deer Lake Park in the distance, the bird’s eye view from 28 stories up makes the patio a highlight of this Metrotown condo.

A look inside shows a marbled bathroom and kitchen that shine in natural sunlight as it streams through the massive windows, and a bedroom boasting that same sky-high view.

Further into the building awaits an indoor pool, a full gym, and – get this – a two lane bowling alley.

Other amenities include a karaoke room and golf simulator, just in case it’s raining or you simply don’t feel like wandering outside the building.

If you do manage to make it out the Met’s sleek glass doors, you’ll be only a short jaunt away from Metropolis at Metrotown, the Metrotown SkyTrain Station, and all the great restaurants and shops that line Kingsway.

Elevator Pitch: Only a stone’s throw away from the third-largest mall in Canada, this Metrotown area condo is in the perfect spot for any young Vancouverite hoping to stay close to downtown – while avoiding the million dollar price tags of Vancouver proper.

Highlight: The view from 28 floors up is enough to take the breath away… but the fresh air that far up in the atmosphere will have you breathing easy again in no time.

Potential turn off: It’s a bit tight if you’re looking to fit any more than a couple people, but the many amenity rooms more than make up for it if you have visitors calling.
