VANCOUVER SUN: Stainless and granite under her, real estate agent Teresa Pang poses in a Zoey >showhome-kitchen. Big window-and-door treatments ensure the narrow space behind her and in front of her get all the light there is to get. Zoey is ready for occupancy now.
The open-plan of the main living floor facilitates line-of-sight residency at Zoey. ‘Another cool feature is the townhomes have their own private garage. It’s goes right into the units so they walk directly into their suite,’ marketing manager Sarah Kent says.

Zoey, across the street from the Pacific National
Exhibition, is a new-home rarity, available for occupancy now.
The townhouses have their own private roof decks, with unobstructed views (and, for some among us, especially of the hallowed grounds of the PNE and old Empire Stadium site). The apartments’ living rooms open onto 11- X 17-foot terraces.
Views from the townhouses are particularly amazing, in the opinion of marketing manager Sarah Kent, taking in “the whole city, ocean and mountains.” Some of the apartments also have views of Mount Baker.
“Another cool feature is the townhomes have their own private garage. It’s goes right into the units so they walk directly into their suite,” says marketing manager Sarah Kent.
To maximize the views and lights the architect has added large floor-to-ceiling, double-glazed windows.
All of the suites have been constructed in an open concept, with their living/dining areas combined, and have fireplaces as a central focus. The kitchens, best described as modern and sleek, all feature stainless steel appliances, granite kitchen countertops and Shaker-style kitchen cabinets.
The townhome master bedrooms also have two closets, including a walk-in and an 11-foot balcony.
Kent says about 70 per cent of the units have been sold.
