1112 West 38th Avenue

The Residence

A new house behind an old hedge, on a Shaughnessy corner south of King Edward.

West 38th Avenue at Osler Street, 370 metres from VanDusen Botanical Garden. The City’s building permit for this house (DB-2022-00667, issued 28 February 2023) describes a two-storey house with a cellar and a detached garage at the rear providing two parking spaces, on the site of an earlier house taken down the same year. Brick and a half-timbered gable face the street behind a clipped hedge; the back is stucco with a glass-roofed pergola over the deck and a paved motor court to the garage.

5,309 square feet over three floors, measured from our own drawing. The main floor, 1,862 square feet under nine-foot ceilings: a living room of 17′6″ by 18′8″ with a brick fireplace, a dining room of 19′7″ by 11′10″, a family room with a second fireplace opening onto the deck, a breakfast nook, an office, a powder room, and a kitchen of 13′7″ by 11′10″ with a wok kitchen of 11′9″ by 9′11″ behind it. Oak runs through all of it.

Upstairs, 1,560 square feet: the primary bedroom of 16′8″ by 14′7″ with a walk-in closet and a bathroom of 10′3″ by 14′0″ in which the tub stands in the window; three more bedrooms, one with its own bathroom; a hall bathroom; and a balcony of 118 square feet over the entry. The lower floor, 1,887 square feet under eight feet, is finished as a second home within the house: its own kitchen open to a recreation room, a room drawn as the theatre, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two laundries, and its own door from a patio with a stair up to the garden.

The Lower Floor

A whole finished floor with its own way in

1,887 square feet under eight-foot ceilings, reached by the stair and by its own door from a patio of 13′2″ by 10′5″ with a stair up to the garden. A kitchen of 14′2″ by 10′9″ open to a recreation room of 16′8″ by 11′11″, a room of 16′6″ by 13′2″ drawn as the theatre, bedrooms of 14′7″ by 9′0″ and 10′6″ by 14′4″, two bathrooms — one of them in two parts — and two laundries. The City’s permit calls this level a cellar; whether it may be used as a suite, and on what terms, is a question for the City of Vancouver.

The Neighbourhood

Shaughnessy, at Osler and 38th
