About the photographs on this page

This house was photographed as part of an AI editing package, so the pictures below are not all a plain record of what the camera saw. Thirty of the thirty-two photographs on this page have been digitally edited. Every photograph carries a label saying what was done to it — including the two that were left alone.

Interiors — belongings removed. The occupants’ possessions have been taken out of the rooms and the beds have been made. In one bedroom the software also generated a desk and a monitor that are not in the room.
Garden — grounds redrawn. The lawn and the planting beds have been generated. They do not show the condition of the ground on the day of the shoot, which was largely bare earth and fallen leaves. The paved paths, the trees, the hedges, the fences and the shed are real, and so is the house.
Two exteriors — daylight converted to dusk. The front and the back of the house were photographed in daylight and re-lit as evening scenes.
What was not changed. No room has been resized or reshaped, and no window, door, cabinet, floor, fireplace or bathroom fixture has been added, removed or altered anywhere on this page.

The unedited camera originals of all thirty-two photographs are on file with REV Studio. No photograph, edited or not, is a substitute for seeing the property.

The property

Three floors, and three different ceiling heights

The house stands on the south side of West 17th Avenue, between Crown Street and Camosun Street. It fronts north onto the street and backs onto a lane, so the garden behind it faces south and runs the full depth of the lot.

City of Vancouver records give the year built as 1937 and the zoning as R1-1, the city’s Residential Inclusive district. The lot works out to roughly 33 feet of frontage by roughly 137 feet deep, about 4,500 square feet, calculated from the City’s parcel polygon rather than from a published figure.

Our floor plan measures about 2,485 square feet of finished space across three floors, and what it shows most plainly is that the three floors are not alike. The main floor is drawn at 8 ft 5 in, the upper floor at 8 ft, and the lower floor at 6 ft 7 in. That last figure is worth reading twice before making plans for the rooms down there.

The floor plan

Drawn on site on 5 September 2026. It is the only document on this page that has not been through an editor, and it is where the ceiling heights come from.

Floor plan of 4058 West 17th Avenue showing the main, upper and lower floors with room dimensions and ceiling heights

The lower floor is drawn at a ceiling height of 6 ft 7 in. The plan draws seven rooms as bedrooms — one on the main floor, three on the upper floor and three on the lower floor — and the second kitchen is on the lower floor as well. Anyone intending to rely on the lower floor should confirm its status with the City of Vancouver.

Room dimensions are taken off the same plan, are approximate, are not a survey and are not guaranteed. City of Vancouver public records carry a different finished area for this house, so measure anything you intend to rely on.

Outside

A garden the depth of the lot

Ten photographs · all edited

Every photograph in this section has been digitally edited. The lawn and the planting beds have been generated and do not show the condition of the ground on the day of the shoot, which was largely bare earth and fallen leaves. The paved paths, the trees, the hedges, the fences, the shed and the house are as they were photographed. Two frames were also converted from daylight to dusk.
