Property Description ::
This is very much a modern row house as you enter this property through a gated patio garden with an adjoining private garage. The wide foyer sets the tone for a seemingly endless flow of bright open spaces and combinations of mesmerizing views to the lagoon, marina, Granville Island and False Creek. The main floor continues to a fabulous sunken family room with comfortable seating area, wood fireplace, computer area, gorgeous maple flooring and all decorated with a nod to Nantucket. The largest of the 6 outdoor spaces awaits at the lagoon side patio with lush plantings and ever-changing interest provided by Mother Nature.
On the next floor is the spacious Living room with another wood fireplace, balcony and private vantage point to the activity along the seawall or the marina. There is a large semi-formal dining space that connects to the outstanding customized shaker style kitchen with ingenious eating area and a westerly bbq/herb balcony. The upper bedroom areas reflect more of the calm east coast aesthetic and eye for detail that is truly genuine as the family owns The Dunlop Inn in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. The skylit landing leads to the inviting secondary bedroom with high ceilings, private bath, balcony and exposure to out to False Creek. Wake up to morning sun in the Principal bedroom with a luxurious ensuite, vaulted ceilings, sitting area and views of Granville Island from both bed and the sunny balcony.
