Royal Oak / Beresford
V2
V2 is a boutique 2014 low-rise at 5288 Beresford Street, a very short walk from Royal Oak Station. Its 32-home scale, charcoal-and-white exterior, bright orange window surrounds, glass balconies and landscaped gated courtyard give it a distinct identity without the operating complexity of a large tower amenity program.

Buyer due-diligence checklist
Use these building-specific prompts to structure your document review and professional inspections. They identify questions to investigate, not conclusions about condition.
Construction and major systems
Review the current depreciation report and strata minutes for the building envelope, roof, balconies, drainage, insurance and acoustic concerns. Confirm which components are common property and whether major work is planned.
Age and capital planning
For a 2014 building, review warranty history, reported deficiencies, developer-related issues, completed repairs and the current depreciation plan rather than assuming newer construction requires little diligence.
Parking, storage and ownership details
The profile identifies the tenure as Freehold strata (EPS1504). General parking information is available, but the legal stall designation, use rights and any allocation to a specific home must be confirmed. General storage information is available, but the locker designation and use rights must be confirmed.

V2 is grouped within Royal Oak / Beresford, with the broader Metrotown and Royal Oak transit network providing the relevant transit context.

Lower-density than the Metrotown core, with a broad selection of wood-frame, townhouse and mid-rise communities near Royal Oak.
What this building is like
V2 is best understood as a west-side, park-leaning edge of the district: a mid-2010s to early-2020s tower completed in 2014, station access is still part of the value story, though this is more edge-of-core than front-door transit around Patterson Station. Small infill low-rise that suits buyers prioritizing scale and value over heavy amenity programs.
In practical terms, this building leans toward downsizers, investors and families. That does not mean other buyer types should ignore it; it means the building’s location profile, scale, age band, and amenity story line up most naturally with those audiences in the current dataset.
Design, amenities, and identity
Public-facing materials position V2 as small-format low-rise infill.
Location context
This side of Metrotown leans more toward Central Park and the Patterson side of the district, which often feels greener and less compressed than the main station core. For this record, the primary transit anchor is Patterson Station, with the current proxy distance band reading as 250-800m.
The upside is a softer park-edge feel; the trade-off is that some errands and major retail trips are a bit less frictionless than the station-core towers. In buyer terms, the location story is usually about park adjacency.

Common buyer questions
What kind of building is this?
V2 is currently recorded as low-rise strata (exact material not fully verified) condo / apartment with 4 storeys and 32 homes/units.
When was V2 completed?
The current record points to a 2014 completion. Buyers should still confirm the exact occupancy / completion timing in strata and title documents when the date matters for warranties or age-sensitive comparisons.
Who built or designed V2?
The developer and design team are not yet fully normalized in the public-source layer for this record, so the page keeps those fields flagged until cleaner confirmation is attached.
Is V2 close to SkyTrain?
The current location model ties this building primarily to Patterson Station, with a proxy distance band of 250-800m. This is useful for comparison, but not a substitute for an exact measured walk time.
What amenities stand out at V2?
Amenity detail is still light in the current public-source layer, so this page does not overstate the amenity package.
Are pets or rentals allowed at V2?
Public-facing sources in this dataset do not cleanly confirm current pet and rental rules, so buyers should verify the bylaws, any rule amendments, and the latest Form B / strata records before relying on assumptions.
