The bigger of the two lots, and the same deal. 458 sold on the same February day as 456 next door and the two had to be bought together — two of five contiguous lots that made twenty-eight thousand one hundred and eighty-three square feet between them. The zoning stood at CS-1 and New Westminster's community plan had proposed the block for townhouse and rowhouse ground, so the price was set against the land rather than the building on it. The lot runs seven thousand seven hundred and fifty-five square feet, sixty-eight and a half feet across the front and a hundred and thirteen deep, close to two-fifths of an acre, freehold and not strata, fenced, with open standing for five cars and room for an RV. The house dates from 1925: a single storey, one thousand square feet and nothing below it, two bedrooms and one bathroom, wood frame under stucco on a concrete perimeter, an asphalt roof, forced air heat. It was never the point of the purchase. Braid Station is a few minutes' walk and Highway 1 is blocks away. Completed February 2021.
