This year more than ever, you're likely dialled into a more focused approach on what you value and what makes you happy. As a discerning homebuyer, you want something distinctive that feels more like a house that will enrich your life, and still, embody how you live and see yourself.
These realities have resonated with homebuyers who have discovered SIENA – the Heights, a new sophisticated collection of spacious one, two, and two-bedroom plus den and flex condominium homes, overlooking Burnaby Mountain and the North Shore.
Located in the heart of North Burnaby's lively and diverse community-centric core, the development comprises 38 spacious and masterfully designed residences, envisioned and developed by I4 Property Group.
Forward-thinking and refined luxury are blended with contemporary quality design and careful craftsmanship with ingenuity—a hotel-inspired lobby, offers an elegant first impression.
The level of meticulous consideration of architectural features and interior finishes throughout are not overlooked, as one astute buyer pointed out, "It's an elevation of class, and it's clear that every small detail has been thought of."
"Buyers and nonbuyers are really impressed by the product—it's what they'd expect to find in more of a luxury high-rise building," acknowledges Myron Calof, president of I4 Property Group.
Spacious interiors, consciously curated
"They're awestruck by the quality of the finishes," adds Calof. "The quality of the work, the selections, everything from the beautiful spa-inspired ensuites with the floating cabinetry, to the countertops, which are continuous quartz under the cabinets."
Large family-sized chef kitchens—easily transform into the home's collective hub—have room for counter stools so people can gather, dine and socialize. They're replete with full-sized Bosch appliances for epicurean delights.
The laundry feature is a functional standout, available in some of the one and two-bedroom homes. Calof is quick to divulge: "Buyers are seeing a number of features considered special and unique in the presentation centre, like the side-by-side laundry, for example, and a large countertop for sorting."
"These features are especially appealing to homeowners who are going to be selling their homes and downsizing—and considering a move into a strata building—they're thinking, this is finished a lot like my home, which makes it really comfortable, and unique to a condominium development."
Eye-catching architecture
Calof explains how a brief drive along East Hastings reveals some new and contemporary properties, but a lot of sameness, nothing with classic character, nothing distinguishing one from another.
"However, our building is attention-grabbing, its exterior is elegant," he says. "The amount of stonework we've incorporated in the building, the ambient lighting on the building, expansive terraces, and just off the lobby, the community piazza out front; a lot of care has been taken in those common areas."
"This means a lot to people who are making a considerable investment. They want to know they're moving into an address of distinction, both architecturally and locationally, and I think we're getting a lot of good feedback."
Another satisfied buyer shares his sentiments on how I4PG has shown their dedication to building to elevate and enhance the local community: "It's clear that your I4PG team has put together something special and unique for this community."
A rooftop garden patio and barbeque plays to the wonderful social vibe expected, where residences befriend one another, share a glass of vino together and bond over their common generational interests.
Exceptional buyer experience
In the presentation centre, expect expert insight from I4PG In-House Sales Staff. Calof credits his team for "knowing SIENA inside and out."
"I think buyers today want to be well-informed. They are interested in the details that encompass some of the technologies, the materials, their durability," he says.
“For instance, our staff is equipped to confidently speak on the home's smart control, A/C and centralized heat and other home features giving buyers an in-depth look into their future home.
"We're getting great feedback from buyers on the whole sales experience, and it has been very positive."
A gratified buyer sums up their experience: "It has been a delight meeting and working with you (I4PG). You have made, thus far, my parent's transition from home to apartment a breeze."
