Description

A Home Built with Integrity, Precision, and West Coast Soul. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail and an unwavering commitment to quality, this exceptional custom-built residence stands as a testament to fine craftsmanship and thoughtful engineering. Every feature has been carefully considered — not just for beauty, but for performance, comfort, and longevity. The heart of the home is a magnificent open-concept living area, completely post-free thanks to three self-supporting engineered trusses. Every window is perfectly picture-framed by a finishing carpenter, every door solid alder with Emtek hardware. The kind of detailing that only comes from true craftsmanship. The chef’s kitchen is both elegant and practical, with custom-built cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, and a double-drywalled ceiling on resilient bar with Green Glue for superior sound control. Even the smallest details — from heated closets that dry outdoor wear to thoughtfully designed media and utility panels — reflect the careful planning behind this home’s design. The residence offers multiple fireplaces with backup electric starters, a whole-home Generac generator, two EV charging stations, and dual RV hookups — ensuring convenience and peace of mind. The private suite is equally impressive, with its own heat pump, electrical panel, and insulated soaker tub. The cleverly concealed kitchen allows the space to easily transform into a second bedroom, and provisions are already in place for future expansion, including plumbing and wiring beneath the waterproof deck to accommodate another suite. Outdoors, a covered patio with fire table and a handcrafted cedar sauna provide serene spaces to unwind while overlooking lush forest surroundings. A greenhouse and garden area complete the West Coast lifestyle experience. (id:63159)

How this is calculated

Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.

Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.

Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.
