"Vancouver's tackiest" home listed for nearly twice the assessed value
A house in Shaughnessy that some feel is Vancouver’s tackiest home has recently been relisted for nearly double its assessed value.
Since its construction in 2019, the home has been listed seven times but has not yet swayed a buyer.
Located at 1487 Minto Crescent, the home has been listed for $15,880,000, and its assessed value is $8,488,000. The building ($4,476,000) is actually worth more than the land ($4,012,000), which says a lot about the work that went into the new property.
You’ll either love or vehemently hate what you see.

To call this home extravagant would be a serious understatement.
The home, which features a whopping 9,905 sq ft of space, includes six bedrooms and ten — yes, ten — bathrooms. According to the listing, it is a world-class, custom-built mansion designed by “renowned Valentino.”
The home is located in the “prestigious Shaughnessy” neighbourhood.
Some of the design choices are pretty interesting.
