Located in a prestigious Vancouver area, this home is filled with old world elegance and English charm. While the styling leans heavily to English Tudor, the striking roof-gables suggest a French Chateau. Pristine landscaping envelopes this masterpiece, ensuring a perfect fit into the existing neighbourhood.
Equally beautiful is the interior’s transitional style – where there’s a mixing of the Old, with wide-plank-flooring, traditional moldings and panelling, coffered ceilings, and the New, with modern cabinetry, 3 magnificent fireplaces, and a stunning array of Austrian-Crystal and French-empire Chainmail Chandeliers and light fixtures.
Custom-crafted millwork is accented by French-styled Austrian Crystal and Schonbeck Crystal chandeliers. The home boasts three magnificent fireplaces, one of which is trimmed out with 24kt gold.With 11-foot-high ceilings on main, this home features a Kitchen-Greatroom that integrates seamlessly with the large covered terrace for year-round entertaining. A full wall of folding-glass-doors reveal a large outdoor-living area complete with an outdoor kitchen, BBQ and fireplace.
The centralized staircase combines modern glass, wrought iron, and wood to achieve a pleasing transition between floors.
Styled off an old-style pub,
the 10-foot high space is anchored
by an inviting full-sized Retro Bar.
Key features of the kitchen include rich dark full-height cabinetry, a majestic cream-coloured hood-fan surrounded by unique Italian tiling, and an impressive island. A convenient adjoining secondary-kitchen serves both the greatroom and formal-dining.
Upstairs, there’s a magnificent master-bedroom, boasting a 17-foot-high vaulted-ceiling, a glorious marble-lined ensuite, a unique walk-through closet, and a private outer deck. The curved sloped ceilings achieve tremendous space and volume without using sharp peaks. In total there are six large bedrooms, each with private ensuite boasting unique marble décor.
The lower floor is an amazing Entertainment experience. Intricate ceiling detailing, not walls, identify the groupings. There’s a 24-foot wine wall, fully climate-controlled, that holds over 900 bottles! With an abundance of comfortable seating, private conversation corners, billiard room and of course a large state-of-the-art home theatre, what more could you ask for.
