Design with Excellence
This residence generates an atmosphere of unparalleled strength. The rugged masculine impact of this solidly built home is complemented by the massive rocky foundation upon which it is sited. A combination of sophistication, elegance and raw power, this residence is situated on ten acres of pristine land, commanding a view like none other: Vast, sweeping vistas over forest land as far as the eye can see, and further to the Strait of Juan de Fuca, where the sky touches the ocean.
Both Victoria and Mount Baker are visible, even through the morning mist. At night, the twinkling lights of Victoria provide a magical backdrop to your cocktail parties. This unmatched location is home to eagles and falcons, which exert their dominion over the panoramic skies. In this residence, you feel as if you are master of the world.
Location
Masterpiece
An exposed aggregate driveway in immaculate condition leads you to your new home. Heavy gigantic boulders, simple planting, pines and indigenous plants surround this noble residence. At the head of the driveway standing in the forecourt of the triple garage, as you survey your domain, you will be thunderstruck by the incredible sweeping views over valleys, extending to the ocean: this is a place where great thinking, bold ideas and powerful decision making are the norm.
Two baronial towers with cone roofs, announce to the world that this commanding residence is indeed a modern interpretation of man’s home as his castle. The 1,015 square foot garage is also on a grand scale, capable of holding at least five cars: the perfect venue for the car enthusiast whose imagination extends from Bentleys to exotic Caterhams.
Curb Appeal
Guest Wing
The tiled front entrance is clad in ledgestone. An Impressive, over height front door with elegant leaded glass sidelites and transom window open to a light filled foyer segueing into a residence of amazing proportions. To the left of the tiled foyer, leaded glass doors open to a private sitting room, reception room, study or home office with double door closet. To the right, the impressive, separate formal dining room is easily capable of accommodating a generous guest list.
Entrance
Picture of Elegance
The great room, accessed both from the foyer and the dining room, features 20-foot cathedral ceilings and elegant crown moldings. With exposed vertical and horizontal fir beams, and a pair of ceiling fans, this dramatic space enjoys stunning views through banks of windows opening to a spacious terrace with glass paneled railings. The great room features a floor to ceiling, wood burning fireplace encased in edgestone, lending a brushstroke of texture, colour and shade.
A television recess and surround sound speakers are built into the overmantel, filling this great space with sublime music. To the right of the fireplace, illuminated shelves have been conveniently fitted for audio equipment, and also for the display of your prized art works.
Great Room
Perfectly Refreshing
Situated at the south end of the great room, and behind a counter pass through is the kitchen: Even Paul Bocuse would concede his approval! With two alleys separating three parallel Silestone countertops, this fabulous kitchen affords views over the entire great room. The first of the countertops serves the triple function of pass through, view of the Great Room, and the reverse: a view of the culinary activities in the kitchen. Faced with exceptionally fine paneling, the counter bordering the Great Room has the appearance of a finished piece of furniture, integrating it with the Great Room, while reprising the quality cabinetry in the kitchen proper.
The pass through counter is framed by two massive vertical beams at either end. A GE wine cooler and prep sink are built into the counter. The central counter is also paneled, containing a GE profile dishwasher, and a huge black double Blanco sink. In the next countertop are a GE Profile range, GE Profile refrigerator and a GE Profile microwave oven. While many modern kitchens resemble a medical clinic, this lovely kitchen is warm and appealing, enhanced by a frieze with soft orange, beige and burnt umber tints, and exceptionally pleasing wood cabinets.
Culinary Dreaming
Adjacent to the kitchen, and contained within one of the two towers, is the inviting sunroom, a stunning space surrounded by banks of floor to ceiling windows which flood the area with varying and contrasting light. Nestled in the corner is a gas fireplace.
This superb place is ideal as a breakfast room, or for decompressing after a strenuous day of decision making. Equally inviting as a private sitting room for intimate conversations, this consummate venue also invites shrewd planning sessions with a small coterie of sophisticated colleagues.
Solarium
Relaxation awaits
The upper floor is given over entirely to a music/media/children’s playroom. Accessed up a flight of superior quality oak stairs, this spacious room is the ideal gathering place for the family. Heavy-duty carpeting serves to baffle extraneous sounds, while providing a comfy ambiance to this cozy space.
Multi Media Room
The short corridor at the foot of the staircase features an immense double closet. The proximity to the kitchen suggests a convenient pantry for all your baking needs as well as for home preserves. Adjoining is a two-piece powder room with designer wallpaper and a stunning vintage style vanity with bronzed faucet.
The spacious laundry room features a Whirlpool “Duet” washer and dryer, and is situated beside the entrance to the cavernous triple garage.
Containing a workbench and amazing storage capacity, the garage also has a car stacking system. This space is an ideal area not only for housing your fine automobiles, but also for the restoration of your classic car.
Lavatory
Culinary Magic
The north wing of the residence is devoted entirely to the opulent turreted master suite, similar in architectural design to the sunroom.
The sleeping area is equivalent to a spacious living room, and features a wall of windows with an almost identical configuration to those of the sunroom.
The easterly aspect permits the warm morning sunshine to awaken you, as you take in the spectacular view across the treed expanse to the ocean beyond. The sleeping quarters are enhanced with a sitting area in the bow window, two walk-in closets, and an area which serves as a dressing room.
Master Suite
The ensuite bathroom is the ultimate in symmetry and balance: along one wall is a single slab of cultured marble containing his/hers washbasins with individual vanity lamps and bronzed faucets. The chic, modern wallpaper seems to display hints of Marcel Duchamp.
The opposite wall features a separate toilet room, and a jetted tub with beautiful arched window above, reminiscent of Cleopatra’s sybaritic tastes. Just lean back and enjoy the lovely garden views while relaxing in soothing eucalyptus scented water. The splendid walk-in shower with Grohe “Aquatower” technology with multiple shower outlets, clad in cultured marble, also features a seat and delightful garden views.
Master Ensuite
The lower floor showcases an exemplary games room, large enough for a professional snooker table, impressively crowned with a triple pendant light fixture. A floor to ceiling gas fireplace with ledgestone surround, television recess and display shelving provides an atmosphere of warmth and camaraderie. A wet bar with multiple cabinets, sink and a Honeywell wine cooler offer just the right ambience to accompany the virtuoso making his three-cushion bank shot.
The games room is flanked on either side by spacious, carpeted guest bedrooms, one with stupendous easterly views, and both with walk-in closets and ensuite bathrooms featuring cultured marble encased walk-in showers and chocolate brown tiles with contrasting white grouting.
Games Room
The generously proportioned covered terrace, accessed from both the games room and south bedroom, almost an exact reprise of the balcony on the main floor, leads to a Mediterranean style trysting place at the base of the turret beneath the sunroom.
Graced with elegant Catalonian arches and a wrought iron rail overlook, this architectural destination offers a softer touch of romance to the bold dynamic lines of this impressive residence.
Extensive storage space suggests intriguing potential for further development, including the possible installation of a private, temperature controlled wine cellar with tasting room to showcase your prized collection of Margaux, Beaune and Pommard.
This commanding residence is worthy of the most discerning purchaser. It announces both who they are and what they have achieved.
