River views, endless cycling and walking trails, quality finishes and still in Vancouver … those were just some of the reasons first time home buyer Amanda Tan bought at Rhythm by Polygon.
After spending three years looking at a number of new condominium projects, the 27-year-old fashion designer fell in love with Rhythm.
“I realized how up and coming the River District is,” says Tan, adding she grew up in South Vancouver and loves the area. “I bike a lot so it’s perfect. I also work in Richmond and spend lots of time in Burnaby so it’s ideally located.”
Finally, she was sold on Polygon’s 35 plus years of experience in building homes here in British Columbia – specializing in residential communities. She is especially excited about the quality of the finishes in her new two-bedroom condo, in particular the cabinetry and the overheight ceilings.
“I like that the building has no retail and yet it’s walking distance from the shopping area,” she adds.
On the banks of the mighty Fraser River in the emerging River District master planned community, Polygon’s Rhythm will be made up of a five-storey wood frame and a 12-storey concrete building showcased by a collection of 145 boutique-style homes, ranging from 635 to 1,020 square feet.
“This is Polygon’s tallest building in the residential area, which means great private unobstructed views from select homes,” says Margot Bates, sales manager at Rhythm. “For that reason, and because it is situated next to a park and just steps from the river, these homes are selling fast.”
These thoughtfully designed West Coast-inspired one- and two-bedroom residences are distinguished by rich wood-style laminate floors, kitchens that boast marble tile backsplash, engineered stone countertops, Bosch appliances and large patios and decks to soak in those water and mountain vistas.
In addition, residents will enjoy their own private amenities at The Rhythm Club. It will feature a fully equipped fitness studio, a residents’ lounge with a bar, and a centrally located courtyard with children’s play area, seating and water features.
River District is a real hidden gem with its own boardwalk, so it’s no surprise that it’s a vibrant scene already teeming with activity.
For the outdoor enthusiasts, it’s a Mecca. There are several nearby trails perfect for biking, walks and runs from its 25 acres of park land.
For those who want those urban amenities such as great dining and shopping experiences, the River District will have it. There’s the iconic Romer’s Burger Bar, which was featured on the Food Network’s You Gotta Eat Here, and the highly anticipated Town Square – a public plaza with numerous retail shops, including a grocery store, bank, coffee shop and restaurant.
This area really has a strong sense of community and connectivity, where people who live here really feel a sense of belonging, where neighbours know each other.
“It won’t be long before people realize they’ve bought into some of the best and most coveted real estate in South Vancouver,” adds Bates.
Riverfront homes starting from $364,900 for one bedroom and $469,900 for two bedrooms – it’s no wonder Rhythm is selling quickly.The Rhythm sales centre, located at 3202 Riverwalk Avenue, is open from noon to 5pm daily (except Friday).
