410 – 2388 Triumph Street — Vancouver, BC

The Property

Unit 410 at 2388 Triumph Street is a top-floor corner penthouse in the Royal Alexandra — a boutique 39-unit wood-frame building in one of Vancouver East’s most established and walkable neighbourhoods. Northwest exposure delivers panoramic views of the city, water, and mountains, with two skylights flooding the open-concept interior with natural light year-round.

At 729 sq ft, the layout is efficient without feeling compromised. Real hardwood floors run throughout. The living room at 13’9 x 11’7 is generous for the product type, with a gas fireplace anchoring the space. The primary bedroom measures 11’7 x 9’3 with a den — functional for a home office, nursery, or reading room — at 4’4 x 4’4 off the main entry.

The unit includes one covered underground parking stall and a storage locker. In-suite laundry is included. The building is pet-friendly (up to 2 pets, cats and dogs welcome) and allows rentals — a meaningful detail for investors and future flexibility for owner-occupants.

The Building — Royal Alexandra

The Royal Alexandra is a 4-storey wood-frame strata at 2388 Triumph Street, built in 1994 and managed by New Point Property Management. With only 39 units, it offers the kind of community feel that larger concrete towers cannot. The building is fully rainscreened — a significant structural upgrade that protects the envelope and reduces long-term maintenance risk for owners.

Amenities include elevator, in-suite laundry, and storage. The complex is steps from community recreation facilities, shopping along Hastings Street, and a dense network of restaurants, breweries, cafes, and parks in Hastings-Sunrise and Grandview-Woodland.

The Neighbourhood — Hastings-Sunrise, Vancouver East

Hastings-Sunrise sits between Commercial Drive to the west and Renfrew to the east, bounded by Hastings Street to the south and the waterfront to the north. It is one of Vancouver’s most walkable and character-rich neighbourhoods — dense with independent businesses, longtime residents, and easy access to both downtown and East Vancouver’s cultural core.

Transit: The building is close to multiple bus routes along Hastings Street, with rapid transit access at Commercial-Broadway Station a short distance west. Commute time to downtown Vancouver is approximately 15–20 minutes.

Parks and recreation: New Brighton Park and the Hastings Community Centre are within walking distance. The nearby PNE grounds, Hastings Park, and the seawall provide outdoor amenities rarely found this close to central Vancouver.

Retail and dining: Hastings Street offers an increasingly strong independent retail and dining corridor. The proximity to Commercial Drive expands access to one of the city’s most established food and café destinations.

The Sale — What This Result Means

This unit sold in 8 days at $688,800 — representing $30,000 above its BC Assessment value of $658,000 and one of the stronger per-square-foot results for the building’s recent history.

The sale occurred in a cautious market. Vancouver condo inventory was elevated through Q4 2025, with buyers holding more negotiating leverage than at any point since 2019. Achieving a result above BC Assessment in that environment reflects accurate pricing strategy, targeted marketing, and clean execution from list to close.

The buyer was represented by a separate brokerage (Macdonald Realty). The transaction closed November 26, 2025.
