This waterfront home in West Vancouver’s Altamont neighbourhood has 80 feet of waterfront, with a saltwater pool and hot tub just steps from its own private, sandy beach – and was the highest-priced new Lower Mainland listing of last week, February 19-26.
The three-year-old custom-built house, which went on the market for $19,999,000 on February 19, has a potential five bedrooms, five bathrooms and more than 6,000 square feet of interior living space.
It sits on an 11,000-plus-square-foot lot boasting 80 feet of ocean frontage, including a private sandy beach accessible from the pool terrace.
The terrace has panoramic views of English Bay, and as well as a saline water pool also benefits from a hot tub and fire pit for those cooler evenings.
Inside, the lavish home has a huge great room, with bags of entertaining space making the most of those views.
Upstairs, three of the bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms, and the vast master bedroom suite includes a super-fancy dressing room.
There’s also a lower level with a wet bar and recreation room, plus a state-of-the-art movie theatre. The yoga room on the lower level could be the fifth bedroom.
All three levels of the home can be accessed by an elevator.
Those elaborate “European-style” finishings might not suit every taste but that pool and private beach are surely universally appealing.
Deep-pocketed buyers take note, though: in addition to the near-$20 million price tag and applicable purchase taxes, you’ll also need to shell out more than $29,000 a year in annual property taxes.
The property was assessed in July 2017 by BC Assessment at a value of $12,176,000.
