About this home
One of a kind, sustainable masterpiece! Located just steps from the beach in prestigious South Oak Bay, this modern gem excites the senses and truly is a unique work of art. Choosing natural, organic and sustainable materials, master craftsmen and artisans curated a home of exceptional quality, nourishing the soul and supporting physical and mental well being, in harmony with nature. Offering three luxurious levels of living for the environmentally conscious couple, seeking state of the art amenities, the home is ideal for indoor outdoor living from its sensational gourmet kitchen and expansive open floor plan to the spacious walk-out deck, inviting alfresco fetes. Among The unusual features is a totem pole (which can be removed - not structural) and etched glass panels designed by award winning master carver, First Nations artist Klatle-bhi. Every season is honoured in the professionally landscaped garden designed by Demitasse with transcendent, meandering stone walkways and offering a fabulous array of exquisite perennials, shrubs and graceful trees. The property is private, fully fenced (Red Balau hardwood) and secured by two automated gates. Finished to the same exacting standards, the separate guest house provides a comfortable hermitage to a family member, boasting its own custom three piece bath, deck and pergola laced with red and green grape vines. Bathed in natural light by day and dramatically illuminated by night, noetic purchasers appreciative of the home's gravitas, are encouraged to view twice in both lights. Situated on the ''beach block'', located close to the Victoria Golf Club, Victoria's finest private and public schools, parks, shopping, surround yourself in the unparalleled beauty and unequalled lifestyle in one of Canada's finest neighbourhoods.
