Vancouver’s prices continue to be reasonable when compared to other world-class cities such as Sidney, Tokyo, Hong Kong, London and New York.
When is a home a bargain at more than ten million dollars? When that home’s seven thousand square feet are set on a private half acre on a hillside overlooking Eagle Harbour. Its two-hundred feet of waterfront include one of the few private docks in West Vancouver.
Inside and out, the home has every feature needed for luxurious living, executed with attention to detail and with the best of quality. The stone and wood exterior and the unique roofline with its turreted balconies lend a touch of old-world grandeur.
The three-level home has every amenity for gracious entertaining. The bar and billiard room has a fan to remove cigar smoke, wine coolers and a refrigerator with an ice maker. Off the Bar and Billiard room is a private balcony with a hot tub with views of the harbour. The living room welcomes guests with a gas-fueled fireplace–there are four fireplaces in the home. At sixteen by twenty-two feet, the dining room is perfect for dinner parties.
Outdoor patios and balconies provide views of lovely Eagle Harbour and of the luxuriant gardens. The gardens are designed for year-round enjoyment. Although the home is only seven years old, the gardens were planted with mature rhododendron, roses, wisteria, cedar and arbutus accented with colorful perennials. An extensive lighting system allows guests and family to enjoy evenings outdoors.
The kitchen is a chef’s delight with its professional-grade Dacor stove and oven, subzero refrigerator with pull-out drawers and tumbled marble work surfaces on countertops and island. It includes space to dine en famille while overlooking the bay. The butler’s pantry has its own sink and a second dishwasher.
The master bedroom suite is the “jewel within the lotus.” Opening from the bedroom are a private sitting area with a fireplace, an exercise room, a walk-in closet, a bath fit for royalty with a pedestal tub and jetted shower. Just off the Bedroom is another private patio to soak up the sunsets from the comfort of the master suite.
Two other bedrooms, a family room and a media room keep the family together. The three-car garage and six additional parking spaces will accommodate family and friends.
