Introduction


Vesa at Little Mountain is the first residential release within Holborn’s highly anticipated Little Mountain masterplanned community in Vancouver. Set near Queen Elizabeth ParkMain StreetHillcrest CentreNat Bailey Stadium, and the Ontario Greenway, Vesa offers a rare opportunity to own a concrete presale home in one of Vancouver’s most established and beloved neighbourhoods.

This first release includes 87 one- to three-bedroom concrete homes in a six-storey building designed by award-winning Canadian architect Arno Matis. With curated interiors, Italian cabinetry, SMEG appliances, resident amenities, and a parkside masterplan setting, Vesa brings together architectural design, everyday convenience, and long-term neighbourhood value.

5 Features of Vesa at Little Mountain Presale

Vesa is the first release within Little Mountain, a major masterplanned community in the heart of Vancouver. The broader community vision includes more than 1,500 new homes, approximately 44,800 square feet of green space and outdoor amenities, and a 61,000 square foot public plaza with retail, cafés, and community spaces. 

This is one of the key reasons Vesa stands apart from many other Vancouver presale condo projects. Buyers are not simply purchasing into a standalone building. They are entering at the beginning of a larger neighbourhood transformation designed around parks, public gathering areas, local shops, restaurants, community gardens, walking paths, and daily conveniences.

Located near Queen Elizabeth ParkMain Street, and Riley Park, Vesa offers a central Vancouver address with both established neighbourhood character and future masterplan potential.

Vesa is a six-storey concrete building designed by Arno Matis Architecture + Urbanism, an award-winning Canadian architecture firm. The design draws inspiration from the natural landscape of Little Mountain, with flowing architectural forms, rounded balconies, and distinctive aluminum panels with a copper-toned finish. 

For buyers comparing Vancouver presale condos, the concrete construction is an important feature. Concrete buildings typically offer better sound separation, durability, and long-term confidence compared with many wood-frame low-rise alternatives. Vesa also aims for LEED Gold standards, reflecting a focus on sustainability in design, construction, and operation. 

This combination of concrete construction, boutique scale, architectural design, and central Vancouver location gives Vesa a different profile from larger high-rise projects or standard wood-frame developments.

Vesa’s interiors are designed with a strong emphasis on livability, storage, and refined finishes. Homes include designer Italian cabinetry and storage organizers by Aran CucineSMEG integrated appliances, quartz countertops, under-cabinet lighting, laminate flooring, roller shades, blackout bedroom shades, and an energy-efficient VRF heating and cooling system. 

Kitchens are designed for both everyday cooking and entertaining, with soft-close cabinetry, durable quartz counters, Blanco faucets, built-in recycling and garbage centres, and SMEG appliance packages. Select homes include gas cooktops, which is a notable feature given that many newer Vancouver developments are moving away from gas cooking.

Bathrooms continue the elevated finish package with Aran Cucine cabinetry, quartz vanity countertops, medicine cabinet storage with vanity lighting, deep soaker tubs or fully tiled walk-in showers, porcelain or terrazzo flooring, and matte black Kohler® fixtures. 

For buyers looking for a Vancouver presale condo with a more design-forward interior package, Vesa offers a refined alternative to more conventional presale finishes.

Vesa’s resident amenities are designed to extend the home beyond the private suite. The amenity offering includes a fitness studioindoor loungemulti-purpose social space with kitchenette, and an outdoor entertaining area with lounge seating, barbecue, harvest table, thoughtful landscaping, and children’s nature play space. 

These amenities are especially well-suited to buyers who want a quieter, more boutique residential environment without giving up useful shared spaces. Rather than focusing only on scale, Vesa’s amenity package is designed around practical day-to-day use: fitness, hosting, gathering, and enjoying outdoor space close to home.

The broader Little Mountain masterplan also adds another layer of lifestyle value, with future public spaces, green areas, community gardens, walking and biking paths, and a public plaza planned for the neighbourhood.

Vesa is located near some of Vancouver’s most recognized lifestyle amenities, including Queen Elizabeth ParkHillcrest CentreRiley ParkNat Bailey Stadium, and the Ontario Greenway. The project is also close to Main Street’s cafés, restaurants, independent shops, and neighbourhood services. 

The project materials describe the location as approximately 10 minutes by car to Downtown Vancouver10 minutes to YVR Airport and Richmond, and 15 minutes to the University of British Columbia

For buyers who value walkability, recreation, restaurants, green space, and a central Vancouver address, Vesa offers a compelling balance. It is close to established neighbourhood amenities while also being part of a new masterplanned community that is expected to evolve over time.

The FAQ notes that the resale must be a legitimate arm’s-length market transaction, taxes and transaction costs are not included, the program is non-transferable, and Holborn may retain a first right of refusal.
