Point2, an international real estate online search portal, has released the most expensive homes currently up for sale in Canada's 25 largest cities.
And Burnaby is on that list.
According to Point2's research, the seven-year-old residence at 6118 Gordon Ave. in Buckingham Heights has a sale price of $5.19 million and has been on the market for 10 days.
Compared to the rest of the cities listed, it's the 18th highest in the country and the third among B.C. communities, Point2's report explained.
The firm considers the seven figures a "modest" price compared to others that stretch into the tens of millions of dollars. A home on Vancouver's Belmont Avenue (Spanish Banks) was the richest at $59.8 million.
REW.ca states the Gordon Avenue house, at 9,563 sq. ft., hosts seven bedrooms and seven full bathrooms, plus a spacious theatre room and a private backyard with a covered deck.
It's three-storey structure also includes a natural gas heating system, air conditioning, a sauna, built-in security system and modern appliances.
Other amenities consist of a grand foyer, entertainment sized kitchen with a "huge island," elegant hardwood flooring, Italian porcelain tiles, designer lighting, crystal chandeliers and LED lighting.
The home is located across from Buckingham Park, also a short drive from Deer Lake Park, and 10 schools are within a 4-km radius.
The Burnaby property last sold in June 2017, according to REW.ca.
Point2's methodology for determining the most expensive homes for sale in Canada included a scan of the most populous cities in the country, national and local brokerages and active "verified luxury listings" as of Sept. 27.
The study, however, does not include planned properties, properties that are under construction, homes with a commercial component (ie. active farms or ranches for growing livestock), properties with increased value mainly based on their high development potential or properties pending sale.
