Mount Pleasant Custom Home — Infill Build on 33×100 Lot

Project Overview

This Mount Pleasant custom home project in a new custom infill construction on 33×100 RT-5 lot illustrates the type of transformation VGC delivers in Metro Vancouver. Every project begins with a detailed pre-renovation assessment, transparent scoping, and permit coordination before any demo begins.

The Challenge

The RT-5 zoned lot in Mount Pleasant permitted a multi-unit building. The homeowners wanted a single-family home that maximized density allowance with a legal suite while maintaining design quality. Heritage character zone requirements limited exterior cladding choices and required specific window proportions.

The Outcome

A 2,800 sq ft three-storey home with a 750 sq ft legal suite generating $2,600/month rental income. Rooftop deck with mountain views, solar-ready electrical, heat pump mechanical system, EV charger rough-in, and fully smart-home compatible infrastructure.

What This Project Cost and Why

The total investment of $1,250,000 reflects the full scope: permits, demolition, structural work, trade rough-ins, materials, finishes, and project management. VGC’s transparent quoting process means this number was within 8% of the original estimate — typical for a project of this type.
