Surfcrest, located at 1251 Cardero Street in Vancouver’s West End, is a 22‑storey concrete high-rise offering 160 units. Built in 1968, the building provides comfortable city living with many units enjoying views of English Bay, the city skyline, or the surrounding mountains. Its central location on Cardero Street places residents just steps from the English Bay seawall, Sunset Beach, and the retail and dining options along Davie and Denman Streets, making it ideal for those seeking a walkable, beach-adjacent lifestyle.

Residents benefit from amenities such as an indoor heated swimming pool and sauna, while maintenance fees often include heat, hot water, and property taxes, helping to simplify monthly expenses. Most units are one-bedroom, one-bath apartments in the small to moderate size range, reflecting the building’s mid-century layout. The leasehold tenure is an important consideration for prospective buyers, affecting financing and resale, and pets are not permitted within the building.

Surfcrest is well-suited for individuals or investors who value location and convenience. Its combination of classic high-rise character, solid amenities, and proximity to beaches, parks, and shopping make it a compelling choice for those looking to enjoy the vibrant West End lifestyle.
