Description

The Pinnacle of Saanich Inlet Waterfront Exclusivity. Immerse yourself in a sophisticated narrative of coastal luxury at this expansive west-facing estate, gracefully positioned on the warm, serene waters of the Saanich Inlet. Surrounded by a rich tapestry of ancient Garry oaks, arbutus, and cedars, this custom residence redefines contemporary West Coast architecture. Designed for an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle, the home's interiors are bathed in natural light. Oversized skylights and soaring wood-clad vaulted ceilings draw the eye upward, while expansive sliding glass doors seamlessly erase the boundary between the elegant living spaces and the coastal landscape. At the heart of the home lies a superb gourmet kitchen, flowing harmoniously into the dining and family rooms—an ideal layout for grand-scale entertaining. Step outside to discover a sun-drenched stone patio and an inviting screened-in porch, offering front-row seats to spectacular evening sunsets. An elegant curved staircase descends to the lower level, revealing a media room framed by coffered ceilings, alongside a private gym, games area, and the comfort of geothermal radiant floor heating. The opulent primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat, boasting spa-like ensuites, a warming fireplace, and a private waterfront patio. Beyond the main residence, the estate's exceptional amenities cater to the maritime enthusiast. A private boat dock and a dedicated oceanfront boathouse with an extended deck provide immediate access to the inlet’s calm waters. The sprawling grounds also feature a charming caretaker cottage, a substantial workshop perfect for storing recreational vehicles, and extensive garaging. Despite its supreme privacy, this sanctuary remains well-connected, situated moments from the airport, ferries, and local conveniences. Elevate your lifestyle in this uncompromising masterpiece.
