Located along West 49th Avenue in Vancouver’s Kerrisdale neighbourhood, this character retention development pairs the restoration of a 1920s era home with a contemporary infill residence at the rear of the lot to introduce gentle density within an established single family streetscape. The street facing building reinforces its original presence through a renewed shingle clad exterior, crisp white trim, and a distinctive curved gable profile with arched window openings and a welcoming covered porch, creating a familiar and refined frontage on a transit connected corridor. At the lane, the new infill is expressed as a bold, modern form in dark cladding with a generous cantilevered canopy and rooftop outdoor space, balancing privacy and daylight while clearly differentiating old and new so both can coexist as a cohesive, livable ensemble.
