The ultimate in urban chic design, West Bay sits at the end of a winding tree lined country lane, in a tranquil traditional environment; yet is only 20 minutes from downtown Vancouver. Combining luxury and function, this home is absolutely stunning. Every square foot of this 5,000 sq.ft. home has been well thought out and designed for convenience in mind.

As you arrive through the front door you will be greeted with the soothing sounds of the waterfall in the front entry. The main floor is open and spacious featuring ebony stained solid oak floors. Just a few more steps from the front door will bring you to a beautiful open kitchen and dining area. The streamlined bistro style kitchen has black granite counter tops, shaker cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. Cooking for larger groups is easy with the 5 burner gas stove in the large centre island, two ovens and a commercial style fridge. Chill your favourite beverage in the under-counter wine cooler.

Large south facing windows bathe the kitchen, dining room and family room in natural light and provide panoramic views to Vancouver Island, English Bay, Stanley Park and Lions Gate Bridge. Beautiful Fir and glass doors lead to a fantastic five hundred square foot slate deck over-looking the landscaped back yard with incredible views of Vancouver. If you like to cook on a grill, there is a gourmet natural gas barbeque on the deck to create your favourite culinary dish.

The intimate formal living room has a view to the kitchen, a gas fireplace and its own sundeck to enjoy soft evening breezes in the evening while sipping your favourite beverage and watching the evening sky settle over downtown Vancouver.

The generous hallway from the family room leads to three bedrooms. The master bedroom has a luxurious king size bed. Get an easy start to your day with a steam shower in the gorgeous ensuite, then enjoy your morning coffee on your own private deck. The second and third bedrooms have comfy cozy queen beds and share a beautiful 4 piece bathroom. All three bedrooms have skylights.
