An artist's delight, this home benefits from natural light from morning to dusk.
Nestled on 2.5 acres in the crook of the hillside, it is a substantial "smart" home with Control 4 to enable remote control of heat, lights or surround sound music, etc. The vast great room with vaulted ceiling offers 39 skylights (12 motorized), a wood burning stove and picture windows provide a vantage point over the valley below. The kitchen has an array of high-end appliances and a massive black granite island contrasts with the warm wood cabinetry. A pantry offers additional storage. Easy-care, polished concrete floors throughout give warmth with radiating heat. The expansive main floor includes the primary bedroom and ensuite bathroom with steam shower and has access to a private deck. There is a separate den on this level too.
The stairs to the view-turret also lead to a comfortable guest suite. The lower level includes 2 bedrooms with a bathroom plus the fully wired media room. The laundry gives access to an oversized garage with underfloor heat.
This magnificent pie shaped lot backs onto the walking trails of 100 Acre Wood. Natural gardens provide an ever-changing display of colour from early spring to fall. There is a 21' x 8' greenhouse and a fenced vegetable garden for the gardening enthusiast.
A short drive to all the amenities of the picturesque rural municipality of Metchosin. Conveniently located near to the Galloping Goose cycling trail, Farmer's Markets, artists' galleries, Witty's Lagoon and schools such as Pearson College and Westmont Montessori School.
