About this property

Beautiful Victorian Home - Central Vancouver!

We have advertised this property on VRBO since 2006. We proudly share the following...

This home is the owners’ winter residence and is ideal if you want to stay away from commercial properties. The residence occupies about 2000 sq ft on the main and second floors of a four stories legal triplex Victorian Home. It can accommodate a small group or up to ten guests with flexible accommodation space and you will be charged only for the number of guests in your party and will have the exclusive use of the residence.
In the house there are 3 bedrooms. Beds are as following:
Bedroom #1: 1 queen bed (double occupancy)
Bedroom #2: 1 queen bed (double occupancy) + 1 single bed
Bedroom #3: 1 king bed (double occupancy). It can be separated in 2 singles.
Three full size very comfortable cots are available for additional accommodation.
Electrical fans are provided in each room for your comfort during warmer summer time.
The house is located off Broadway and Clark, in a very quiet and tidy homeowner occupied neighborhood.
Centrally located, this residence is two half blocks away from Broadway, a main artery that allows easy connection to UBC University, the beaches and the downtown area on one side and Commercial Avenue, with its famous café and restaurants, on the other side.

It is one block away from Clark, your fastest connection to the airport and to Freeway 99 to Seattle; one block away from 12th Ave, the direct connection to Trans-Canada Highway 1.

The residence retains its original stained glass windows and is furnished with antiques and family heirlooms.
You will relax in the evening breeze on the deck, ready for a candlelight dinner or for a fun barbecue and will enjoy a lovely view of the city and the mountains from the master bedroom and bathroom.
Custom-made beds, two-hundred-counts 100% cotton linen and custom made mattresses will insure you the best comfort while you sleep.
The professional kitchen features custom made cabinets, marble counter top, professional gas stove, fridge, dishwasher, upright freezer, microwave, all the utensils.
In one of the bathrooms you will soak in bubbles floating in the original bear-claw-foot tub.

Dear Sammarco Family,
We have fallen in love with Vancouver!
We loved the house and neighborhood, especially the great parks all around for the kids to enjoy. The house felt very homey and we loved the art work all around.
With having a large family (6 kids) it was so nice to have a home base with room to move about, a kitchen to cook in and great patios to enjoy. We hope to return again sometime!
Thank you!

Sammarco Family,
Thank you for opening your home for us to enjoy. It was great having a 'home' base in a quiet neighborhood (especially travelling with a toddler)! The house (and the nearby park) worked very well for us, and an attraction in itself for our son!
We truly enjoyed your artistic home - what a talented group of people!
We loved the front and back deck! They were our go-to spots when the little guy was napping!!

We so enjoyed making your home our home for our week in Vancouver.

We came from Indianapolis, Adam from tampa and Rachel from Tucson. We had a great time. Your neighbourhood is lovely and so close to SkyTrain and many restaurants. That's a workout! Thank again for opening your lovely home. It did some time for those of us over 6'1' to get used t some of the low ceilings, but we stopped banging our heads after a day or two. Ciao,

Was Like A Home Away From Home
Booking and pre-arrival dialogue was timely and useful. Check-in onsite was in-person, concise and helpful responding to any questions about property and nearby amenities. Great central location in a neighbourhood with access in all directions and we were able to park right in front of the house every arrival, regardless of time.All amenities were clean and in proper working order. Lots of little extras present that you don't always find in other properties that are just focused on generating. Property was more than a house, it looked and felt like a home. Every wall in every room had a story to tell of love, life and laughter.Noise in the neighbourhood from surrounding properties and nearby major roads wasn't obtrusive and we hardly ever noticed sounds from space above or below us other than the occasional floor squeak - as any house of this vintage and character would have (and that's a good thing :).From a safety perspective, did not see or hear any indication of risk/crime on or near property. No homeless in back alleys or park spaces nearby. Encounters on the sidewalk was mostly to be a dog walk and friendly :).Felt privileged to find and stay at this gem. Best wishes to all attached to the property in the year ahead.

Great for a larger group
We were a family group of seven (parents, adult children and a grand-child) who stayed for a week and this house suited our needs exactly. This is an older house that has been beautifully renovated and well maintained. It is wonderfully decorated with art, photos and sculpture everywhere. The house is roomy with common areas for the group and private rooms for quiet time. The location is ideal for a stay in Vancouver - central, close to major thoroughfares and transit but in a quiet residential neighbourhood. I would highly recommend this property for a larger group.

Beautiful Victorian Home
Amazing place to book. The home was beautifully decorated. So comfortable! Great location. Check in process was easy and prompt. The home is centrally located. Parking was amazing, right in front of the house. The street was so quiet. The home had all of the amenities you need for a very comfortable visit. I highly recommend this home. We loved it. We had our entire family with us. Everyone loved it. Beds were so comfortable. Washer and dryer in the house to use. The front porch was perfect for drinking your morning coffee, reading, visiting with family. We travel a lot, always with VRBO. This is one of the best we have rented. I highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Vancouver. Owners, thank you for allowing us to have an amazing visit.

Lovingly decorated
With 7 people, it's no small feat to find a place that will house all of us comfortably. This was the perfect home base, and we looked forward to returning every night we were in Vancouver. There was something new and interesting in the house everywhere we turned, and we had enough space to maneuver around each other. Communication did get a bit jumbled at times because there were so many of us and there was a separate property manager along with the owners, to add even more lines of contact. But the property manager was very accommodating and the small issues (miscommunication about the bedding, dishwasher instructions being different between what was said verbally and what was written down, etc) were figured out very quickly. We enjoyed our time here a lot. A lovingly decorated home.

Raccoon Mansion
The property was overgrown but also they were infested with raccoons and we could smell, hear and see them. Two of our members could smell raccoon urine the moment we went inside and that is not a very nice smell! The "garage" in the back garden was fixed up and rented out as was the basement and the third floor as well. So there were 4 rental properties in one which I was not expecting at all. The house was in need of some repair especially the rear deck which had boards lifting up. One evening, the raccoons were making such a racket we went inside just in case they would come out. The raccoons entered the house through the ceiling of the back deck. Apparently the owners were aware of the raccoon problem but had not done anything about them. We would like out money back for this shabby property.

Vancouver Adventure
House is quite old with lots of stairs to get up to the bedrooms and lots of artwork. Neighborhood is nice, and has easy driving access to main tourist attractions. My friends and I rent a house each summer and this is the first one where the TV actually worked without problem! We were surprised at how expensive some sites were, like Grouse Mountain and Capilano Bridge. Granville Island has lots of shops but it’s best to take a cab there as parking is almost nonexistent.

Centrally located for large family
We took a cruise from Vancouver to Alaska and decided to stay here for a few days on the front end of our trip. The manager met us at the house and was very welcoming. He even set up an extra bed for us. We had no issues while there. The house was in a safe neighborhood. It was well stocked with toilet paper and had laundry. We chose this house because it was centrally located to the bus stops connected to Skytrain. Miraculously, the busses and skytrain were large enough to accommodate our family and luggage! It was 2 adults and our 7 children ages 5-17. We did not rent a car and although there was a bit of walking, we figured out Vancouver’s public transit. We did end up taking an Uber back from Stanley park after a long day. We also took a taxi to the cruise terminal for ease of hauling luggage. The weather was very cooperative so we spent most of our time on the back deck. If it weren’t, we might have had trouble sitting together inside for meals. We had no problems cooking, but spices could use refills. It would be helpful to have a list of suggested restaurants nearby. We were surprised that there was a lower level of the house and upstairs level of the house (both with their own entrances) that were also rented out. We had no contact with the people, but thought it should be worth noting. I passed up other homes because of this-although it really was not a problem in this case. There was a park about a block away that the kids were able to play. Thank you Maria!

Feines Schmuckstück zwischen Main und Commercial
Bereits in 2019 hatte ich das Privileg in diesem wirklich schönen viktorianischen Haus meine Herbstferien zu verbringen. Auch diesmal war ich wieder rundum begeistert (siehe meine wirklich detaillierte Bewertung dazu in 2019). Ausstattung und Lage sprechen für sich. Das Wetter erlaubte diesmal zudem, daß ich den Porch nutzen konnte – ein Traum. Die Betreuung durch den Angestellten Gerry als auch durch die freundlichen Vermieter selbst war wieder ausgezeichnet. Als an einem Tag die Alarmanlage ausfiel wurde diese noch am selben Tag wieder instandgesetzt. Prima! Die 2 ½ Bäder waren ebenfalls wieder picobello sauber. Gern komme ich wieder vorbei – mein herzlicher Dank geht an die Vermieter Maria und Riccardo.

About the host

Hosted by Riccardo

Host profile image
We are two architects, originally from Italy, where we return every year. This is our winter residence in Canada.
When we saw this house, in 1998, we knew we had found the right home for us.

Why they chose this property

The quiet neighbour, the balanced location between two main commercial arteries — Main St and Commercial St — the easy accessibility to downtown, UBC, the beaches, the airport have made this location a perfect choice for us.

What makes this property unique

In addition to the above, we wanted our home to be flexible, organized, comfortable, and to have the beauty and warmth of an historical building.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
