About 688 Abbott Street
This furnished 2-bedroom 2 bathroom is right in the sweet spot where Crosstown, Gastown, and Yaletown all bump into each other—super walkable and packed with good stuff. You're literally steps from: - Tasty bites everywhere: Phnom Penh for killer Vietnamese, Nuba for Lebanese, Flying Pig or Chambar for fancier plates - SkyTrain (Stadium-Chinatown station) is one block away, so you can zip to the airport or anywhere in just ten minutes - The seawall and False Creek are a five-minute stroll west—great for runs or just chilling with water views - Costco in across the street if you're into bulk everything. Gastown's cobblestone vibes, coffee shops, and bars are two blocks north - International Village mall (Tinseltown) right across the street for movies, food court, and random errands. It's honestly one of those rare spots where you can ditch the car completely and still have everything you need within a ten-minute walk. Love it there. Sports fans? Concert goers? You can’t be in a better spot with BC Place a 6-minute walk and Rogers Areana a 4-minute walk! And Parq Casino a 12-minute walk. Apartment is fully furnished with everything you need to feel right at home! Huge windows throughout letting in lots of natural light and a brand new in suite washer/dryer! This apartment is so spacious, and it has two flex rooms, one is perfect for an office (desk already set up) and the other is great for storage. Cable TV – Internet – Heat – Electricity – Hot Water and 1 Parking spot all included.
