Sitting at the crest of a hill on a very quiet tree-lined street sits a stunning 5,440 square-foot newly built home. Nestled along North Vancouver’s Upper Mackay Creek Park, this impressive home stands on 14,000 square-feet of private and lush surroundings.

Designed by Seattle based Garret Cord Werner Architects & Interior Designers, and built by Werner Construction, this impressive west coast contemporary home incorporates concrete, steel and glass and uses rich natural clear cedar on the exterior, providing a sleek appearance that blends in with its natural surroundings.

The interior of the home is bright and spacious with generous views of the garden and outdoor areas. The large kitchen and living room branch off the front entry and share a beautifully engineered stone fireplace acting as a room divider and main focal point. The open concept design promotes socializing and family gatherings as each room flows seamlessly into the next. Extraordinary 12-foot ceilings, lined with windows and complete with automatic blinds allow the lushness of the surrounding greenery to permeate the living room while maintaining privacy. Strategically placed skylights and windows throughout bathethe home with natural light. The rich wood ceilings and floors provide ample warmth and comfort create the ideal balance in this modern home.

It features 4 bedrooms, five bathrooms, a media room in the lower level and several indoor, outdoor gardens. The bathrooms are simple and sophisticated featuring limestone countertops. The master bedrooms en-suite has large open windows that overlook the forest and provide complete privacy for when you soak in the large freestanding bathtub. Not only is the home situated on the outskirts of a gorgeous park, it’s only blocks away from Edgemont Village, a lovely outdoor shopping district nestled in the heart of a flourishing residential neighborhood at the base of Grouse Mountain.

The home offers an abundance of warmth and character with the perfect blend of aesthetic and comfort, indoors and out. This contemporary home is a dream come true for the architecture and the nature lover.
