This single family residence built in the 60s was brought into the current era over the past year, when Iconstrux Architecture Ltd. was put to the task. The objective? Free the spaces within but not jeopardize the structural integrity of the existing wood-frame construct. All windows were strategically re-proportioned and re-placed to harvest both the varying south and north light qualities into the deep spaces. Generously designed 18 ft long/floor hugging concrete hearths accompanied with full height "glass drapes" as wall dividers, sets off a bold re-make to the infamous "Vancouver Special" - establishing yet another new precedent for contemporary living on the west side.

This is a home of extraordinary contemporary design just steps from the Endowment Lands trails. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a home of leading design.

Designed by International Design Firm, Iconstrux Architecture Ltd., this cutting edge home features:

  2,500 sf above grade finished floor space.
