Overview
Springer Manor is a well-maintained 13-suite apartment building located at the southwest corner of Hastings Street and Springer Avenue in Burnaby’s sought-after Capitol Hill neighbourhood.
Built in 1962, this 3-storey walk-up building sits on a 12,768 SF lot zoned RM3, featuring spacious suites with a mix of 7 one-bedroom and 6 two-bedroom units. The two top-floor, south-facing units offer exclusive rooftop patios with stunning views of Brentwood and Metrotown.
Notable features include a washer/dryer set, 8 surface parking stalls, electric breakers for all units, ample storage with 12 tenant lockers, and a large ground-floor room that could potentially be converted into an additional suite. The property also boasts a crawlspace that spans half the length of the building with a 10-foot ceiling.
Additionally, the property is held in a bare trust, allowing for significant tax savings.
Upgrades
Over the years, there have been several capital upgrades, including:
- New wall-mounted high-efficiency boiler (December 2023)
- New 2nd-floor roof (December 2024) and top floor replaced (2014)
- New service line pipe (January 2025)
- Suite renovations: 7 of the 13 units have had kitchens and bathrooms remodeled, with 2 additional units currently undergoing upgrades (unit numbers to be confirmed).
Development potential
The City of Burnaby is in the process of updating its city-wide OCP and rezoning bylaws. Within the draft OCP land use map, the property is designated Low-Rise Apartment 2 which envisions up to 6-storey apartment buildings, subject to various other policies and built-form guidelines.
