Patio Paradise at UBC

Welcome to a true patio paradise at UBC—a home where indoor-outdoor living feels downright magical.

Step into this spacious 1,240 sq. ft. corner unit featuring two bedrooms (with the option for a third) and a den, plus a truly impressive 1,300 sq. ft. private yard—hedged, gated, and opening up to the pedestrian-only Main Mall. Here’s where the magic happens: imagine strolling to your garden plot or the cafe for a coffee or the forest with the dog, or kids scootering and exploring the playground and little mature forest right next door... all with zero traffic worries!

This spot is seriously one-of-a-kind in the Lower Mainland, with a lively patchwork of neighbors who truly cherish their slice of paradise. Community garden plots are just steps away, Tai Chi is often seen in the forest, and the Old Barn Community Centre (complete with delicious eats, coffee, local beers on tap, gym, boardrooms, and a fun kids’ zone) is only a few minutes down the Mall. Of all the prized patio homes lining this bricked road and car-free block, unit #106 stands out as the most sought-after.

On the sunny south corner, you’ll enjoy extra privacy, loads of sunshine, and shade-providing balconies overhead that keep things cool inside when summer heats up. The open living plan is bathed in natural light thanks to big windows peeking out at the lush patio. The kitchen, tucked just off the dining area, lets you gaze out at greenery while doing dishes—plus, there’s tons of cabinet space, stainless steel appliances, and a double sink perfect for meal prep.

The living and dining areas are open and inviting, with a cozy gas fireplace and a large flexible nook you can use for a piano, media spot, or even as a future third bedroom. The french-doored den fits a tidy home office setup, while the primary bedroom welcomes a king-size bed and features a spacious walk-through closet leading to a double-vanity ensuite. The second bedroom sits on the opposite side, close to a full bath with a walk-in shower.

Practical perks include a storage locker, secure bike room, two parking spaces (with EV charging!), gas for both fireplace and stove, and pet-friendly policies (within reason, of course).

“Journey” by Adera is built to last: rainscreen technology, hardy siding, and west-coast contemporary flair combine with a proactive and friendly strata community. Whether you’re relaxing in your garden oasis or meeting neighbors on Main Mall or at the Community Garden plots, this is a worry-free investment with healthy financials, up-to-date reports, and thoughtful stewardship—all waiting for the next happy homeowner.
