We have carried out multi-epoch VLBI observations with VERA (VLBI Explorationof Radio Astrometry) of the 22~GHz H$_{2}$O masers associated with a Class 0protostar L1448C in the Perseus molecular cloud. The maser features trace thebase of collimated bipolar jet driven by one of the infrared counter parts ofL1448C named as L1448C(N) or L1448-mm A. We detected possible evidences forapparent acceleration and precession of the jet according to thethree-dimensional velocity structure. Based on the phase-referencing VLBIastrometry, we have successfully detected an annual parallax of the H$_{2}$Omaser in L1448C to be 4.31$\pm$0.33~milliarcseconds (mas) which corresponds toa distance of 232$\pm$18~pc from the Sun. The present result is in goodagreement with that of another H$_{2}$O maser source NGC~1333 SVS13A in thePerseus molecular cloud, 235~pc. It is also consistent with the photometricdistance, 220~pc. Thus, the distance to the western part of the Perseusmolecular cloud complex would be constrained to be about 235~pc rather than thelarger value, 300~pc, previously reported.
