The finest example of west-coast luxury on Vancouver Island, This one-of-a-kind custom home captures the essence of modernity in a rustic setting towering over Maple Bay. Offering unrivalled beauty and privacy, this property spans over 2.75 Acres of impeccably manicured grounds constructed in 2012.
Due to its most predominant feature, the turret on the home's Northwest wing, the property was named The Spire. This architectural feature reaches dizzying heights and creates unique living spaces for an executive office on the main level and a private pub on the lower floor with 180˚ views of land and sea.
Accessed by a private gated driveway, This architectural masterpiece spans two floors with nearly 7500 sqft of living space with exquisite finishes throughout the home. The attention to detail and craftsmanship of this residence is apparent from spire peak to foundation. Designed by Craig Gibson and constructed by Somennos Construction, every detail was considered when planning and executing the Spire. The forging of contemporary west-coast design with craftsman-style elements throughout the property makes a dramatic statement.
White Italian marble floors with intricate inlays greet you as you cross the threshold onto African Cabreuva hardwood floors. A voluminous atmosphere welcomes you surrounded by unobstructed ocean views and an abundance of light.
The professionally designed chef's kitchen is astonishing with custom Maple cabinets, exquisite granite countertops, and heated black Italian marble flooring throughout. The lit coffered ceiling creates a striking lighting feature that draws guests with an inviting glow.
A spacious multi-level countertop surrounds a central island, which allows spectators to view while chefs prepare meals. A full butler's kitchen, including a fridge, stove, dishwasher, and sink, keeps unsightly appliances, dishes and food preparation separate from the kitchen.
The kitchen overlooks an elegant dining area with artisan finishings at every turn. A custom leather floor inlay borders a space allowing over 20 people to dine. A central focal point is the dramatic gas fireplace surrounded by elegant Italian marble tiles framing the table's head.
23 ft. vaulted ceilings found in the living room are an exceptional architectural feature that emphasizes your perspective over Maple Bay. Central to the room is a wood-burning fireplace faced with hand-chipped travertine stone with a unique concrete mantel and hearth fashion after the caps found exterior columns. The sunken living room has a luxurious carpet inlay in the center of the room that will promote instantaneous relaxation when entering the space.
The master suite is the epitome of modern technology, convenience and comfort. A custom floating bed which faces the sunrise offers breathtaking views of the ocean. Enjoy your favourite show in bed with the retractable flatscreen television, which descends with ease from the ceiling. Or rest in the outdoor Spa found on the deck, accessible by a private entrance off the master suite. The Spa is recessed into the deck, giving unobstructed views over the ocean as it winds through the bay.
The five-piece master ensuite is immaculately designed to take full advantage of the views. Dual sinks flank a make-up vanity which is beautifully lit by both natural and artificial light. Start your morning with a refreshing rainfall shower surrounded by windows that will make you feel one with nature as the sun rises in front of you. And end your day in a relaxing soaker tub with gorgeous views of the sunset over the seascape.
Leading you downstairs is a curved staircase accented with the same hand-chipped travertine stone found on the living room fireplace. A hand-carved railing will guide you to the lower floor with equally impressive views and distinctive flooring. You'll find the wine cellar, a pub, recreation room, games rooms, theatre, two additional bedrooms, and another stunning office on this floor.
Vinophiles will be enchanted with the water-chilled Wine Cellar with 1100 bottle capacity found just footsteps from the recreation rooms. The flooring in the cellar shares the rare leather flooring of the dining room on the main floor.
The pub in Spire's lower section is ideal for watching sporting events on the two flatscreen televisions found behind the bar.
Further entertainment abounds with the private theatre with seating for eight or more. An Epson Pro Cinema presents stunning cinematic quality with a surround-sound system, theatre lighting, and soundproofing to absorb all echos.
Outdoor entertaining is flawless, with over 1200 square feet of hanging concrete deck space with a topless infinity view railing. The deck has a covered outdoor kitchen complete with granite countertops, a sink, and a gas bbq.
