Introduction
Aperture Vancouver – 5699 Baillie Street & 5688 Willow Street
Aperture Vancouver, located at 5699 Baillie Street and 5688 Willow Street, is a refined low-rise residential development in Vancouver’s Cambie Corridor. Completed in 2017, the project comprises 78 homes across two distinct buildings. With architecture inspired by the interplay of natural light and modern form, Aperture features signature white and wood façades punctuated by floor-to-ceiling windows and cantilevered balconies. The result is a residence that is as visually compelling as it is livable—offering a unique foothold in a part of the city that continues to see sustained transformation.
Location and SkyTrain Access
Set just off West 41st Avenue, Aperture Vancouver benefits from direct access to some of Vancouver’s most important urban conveniences. Oakridge Centre is a short walk away, as is the Canada Line’s Oakridge–41st Avenue station. The latter ensures rapid transit to downtown Vancouver, YVR airport, and Richmond. Residents also enjoy proximity to Queen Elizabeth Park and VanDusen Botanical Garden, both of which offer respite from the city’s pace. This segment of the Cambie Corridor has become synonymous with thoughtfully executed density, offering transit-oriented development without sacrificing neighbourhood charm.
Pricing for Aperture Vancouver
Resale listings at Aperture Vancouver have typically reflected its position as a boutique development with enduring architectural value. For example, a 985-square-foot two-bedroom unit was recently listed at $950,000, suggesting a per-square-foot price of approximately $964. As with all Vancouver real estate, pricing varies based on layout, exposure, and market conditions. Interested buyers should consult current listings to obtain up-to-date valuation data.
Floor Plans for Aperture Vancouver
Aperture Vancouver was designed to offer a breadth of living formats. Units range from garden-level studios to multi-storey laneway villas. Notably, the development includes a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, as well as two-level corner units and duplex-style townhomes. This diversity has allowed the project to appeal to both downsizers and families seeking intelligent design in a premium location.



Interiors
The interiors of Aperture Vancouver were conceived with restraint and longevity in mind. Homes feature nine-foot ceilings and expansive windows that admit natural light throughout the day. Kitchens are outfitted with integrated Miele appliances, quartz countertops, and streamlined cabinetry, delivering a balance between aesthetic sophistication and functional performance. Engineered hardwood flooring is standard in most units, while spa-like bathrooms include soaker tubs, Grohe fixtures, and radiant in-floor heating. Each suite also includes air conditioning—a rare feature that adds material comfort in Vancouver’s increasingly warm summers.
Amenities in the Building
Aperture’s amenity offerings are subtle yet thoughtfully designed. A rooftop terrace, landscaped with Asian-inspired foliage and outfitted with communal seating, offers unobstructed views of the North Shore Mountains. Ground-level courtyards and a reflecting pool introduce calm and architectural harmony to the central common space. In-suite laundry, secure underground parking, and elevator access round out the resident experience.
Airbnb Policy
As of this writing, Aperture Vancouver does not permit short-term rentals such as Airbnb. Prospective buyers and investors should confirm current rental policies with the property management or strata corporation before making any decisions related to short-term occupancy.
