Strachan Point is the perfect rental for the 2010 Olympic Games, just minutes by highway to Cypress Mountain for alpine events and less than 30 minutes to the Whistler shuttle while still being half an hour from downtown Vancouver BC! You are literally in the middle of it all. This luxury waterfront home is located just north of Vancouver's Horseshoe Bay near the upscale residential area of Lions Bay. Strachan Point is situated directly on Howe Sound, one of Canada's most beautiful ocean inlets. Thanks to this spectacular setting, the home boasts expansive ocean views from every room.
As you pass into this private, gated property, you are immediately taken by the natural setting. This home is in complete harmony with its waterfront environment. As you enter, you are immediately impressed by the wide-open design. Brazilian cherry wood and heated limestone floors lend a rich, warm atmosphere to the living and sleeping spaces. Floor to ceiling windows boast endless mountain and water views from nearly every room in the house. Enjoy the views of the ocean and pool while eating at the kitchen bar seating or at the dining table.
The kitchen features everything a chef might desire including a Thermador 6-burner gas range, granite counter tops and top of the line stainless steel appliances. The living room is raised from the main floor and has large windows and views to the ocean. It's grand appeal is punctuated by a large rock fireplace, perfect for setting the mood while watching the sunset. The family room off the kitchen, features one of the three fireplaces in the home and the sauna, which is off the pool area.
The upstairs living spaces all offer unobstructed views of the ocean. The Master bedroom has a large ensuite bathroom with two sinks and a large jetted Jacuzzi tub. Be sure to relax there, warmed by one the home's four fireplaces, while taking in a spectacular sunset, watching eagles fly overhead or seals swimming by. Step out onto the 3rd floor veranda to survey the pool deck and the water beyond, you will feel like you are looking out from the deck of a luxury ocean liner. The ocean side of the house has a pool adjacent to the water with a small lawn area with steps down to the water's edge. There is a sauna off the family room and pool change room as well. Children will feel right at home while using the playground and trampoline on the property.
