An intimate collection of 79 concrete residences offers a rare opportunity to enjoy an unparalleled lifestyle with lower maintenance in a prestigious neighbourhood. On a quiet tree-lined street in the coveted Kerrisdale enclave, come home to 5656 Balaclava.
“It is very rare that a new development would take the time and effort to ensure every home includes the features and amenities that perfectly match the expectations of our buyers.,” says Craig Anderson, VP of Sales at Magnum Projects. “Though 5656 Balaclava is designed as a multi-family development, we’ve re-imagined every aspect of the project to provide the same features and conveniences you would only find in a single-family home.”

“The vision for the interiors at 5656 Balaclava was to present a timeless living environment with just the right amount of modern accents.,” says Kari Henshaw, Principal at Insight Design Group Inc. “We wanted each person entering the space to feel “at home”. By providing two neutral colour palettes, one warm and one a little cooler, there was something for everyone. We wanted this to be somewhere they could easily see themselves living. Overall, we wanted the design to be comfortable, warm and inviting.”
The enduring kitchens are anchored by a premium full-size integrated Miele appliance package with an under-counter Miele wine storage unit that is standard in all homes, imported Italian kitchen cabinetry by Cellini, full height pantry with slide-out shelving (most homes), cutlery and utensil organizers and drawer dividers, pull-out magic corner storage system, spacious island, sleek quartz countertops and full slab porcelain backsplash.
