NORTH BURNABY — Hovering 30 storeys over Burnaby’s emerging Brentwood neighbourh­ood, Embassy’s Vantage defines the peak of luxury living. This gleaming glass and concrete highrise has been designed by award- winning Chris Dikeakos Architects Inc. and developed by Ryan Bosa’s Embassy Developmen­t.

Vantage combines two sometimes mutually exclusive concepts: true luxury and timeless value. Luxury, because these spacious homes come equipped with the very best appliances, fixtures, and furnishing­s – and value; large two bedroom, two bathroom homes start in the mid-$ 400 range. Once it’s completed in early 2013, Vantage will be Brentwood’s landmark community, its ‘ best address’ in the very heart of the Lower Mainland.

The Vantage experience begins the minute you step inside the luxuriousl­y-appointed two- storey lobby, with its oversize chandelier, elegant marble floor, and graciously appointed seating and concierge station featuring customdesi­gned millwork

Vantage offers better value simply by giving homeowners more space. Soaring 9- foot ceilings enhance a feeling of freedom. Floor- to- ceiling windows and expansive balconies invite natural light and allow for comfortabl­e outdoor living. South facing units have panoramic city views, while homes on the north side enjoy a stunning perspectiv­e on the North Shore and the twinkling lights of Grouse Mountain.

Each home comes in a choice of two style schemes immaculate­ly created by Cristina Oberti. The Contempora­ry scheme features a two tone cabinet palette with rift cut oak lowers and white lacquer uppers while the Classic scheme showcases dark wenge cabinets throughout. Each scheme provides either a polished quartzite or granite countertop for both the kitchen and bathrooms. Durable laminate hardwood floors cover the entry, kitchen, living, dining and den, while the bedroom floors utilize luxurious loop- tip sheared Beaulieu carpet. A full- sized stacking washer/ dryer is included, too.

The gleaming, spacious kitchen is a creative chef’s dream come true. This premium stainless steel appliance package from Electrolux features an over the range microwave, slide- in gas range, stainless steel dishwasher and a Samsung 17.8 cubic foot French door refrigerat­or with bottom mount freezer.

In the bathrooms, deep soaker tubs refresh and restore a sense of well- being after your day. Frameless clear tempered glass shower doors with chrome hinges in the master bath. Other details include porcelain 12” x 24” tiling for bathroom floors and ensuite shower surround and ceramic 12” x 24” wall tile for bathtub surround in the main bath.

Living at Vantage, Brentwood’s major shopping destinatio­ns and BCIT Burnaby Campus are only moments away. Located at the midpoint between downtown and SFU Burnaby, the area is extremely well served by rapid transit and schools.

Vantage’s amenity centre is the perfect place to entertain and unwind. A spacious lounge with kitchen is perfect for hosting informal gatherings, complete with billiards table and ample seating. The fitness studio features ‘ his and her’ change rooms, sauna and generous hot tub.

At Vantage, residents can take advantage of this amenity- rich neighbourh­ood with its vibrant town centre. Nearby restaurant­s offer both fine and casual dining. Choosing to eat- in is easy; prepare sumptuous meals with groceries from Save On Foods, Bosa Foods, Kin’s Market, Cobs Bread and Cioffi’s Meat Market.

Vantage is built by Embassy Developmen­t Corporatio­n, an independen­t Bcowned company operated by highly experience­d profession­als with a passion for excellence. Establishe­d in 2004 by Ryan Bosa, Embassy is founded on his extensive experience building world class projects throughout North America.
