Set as a jewel on its beautifully landscaped one acre garden, this exceptional Uplands manor could easily be featured in Architectural Digest! The architectural style echoes the finest of features found in European villas, perhaps in France or England; spectacular, elegant, yet welcoming.
The sellers spared no expense in finish or design, creating a home of incomparable elegance. The feature ceilings rise from 10’ to 23’ each artfully presented allowing an abundance of light and grand spaciousness. The floor to ceiling windows are distinctively arched, while the ceiling crown mouldings throughout the main floor are intricate and rare. The lighting design throughout the home has been architecturally chosen to compliment each and every room.
This residence is ideally designed for entertaining. The feature living room with fireplace has a 23’ soaring ceiling and flows in to the 20’ dining room and on to the welcoming den. All rooms access the elegant patio with feature fountain through French doors. The indoor/outdoor relationship is inviting to guests to enjoy the spectacular private gardens; reminiscent of a fine European villa landscape.
The gourmet kitchen defies description; there are simply not enough superlatives to express the features. Fully equipped with a 20’ feature ceiling, spanning half the width of the home, with granite a center island, it adjoins a breakfast area overlooking the front courtyard. Simply spectacular! Adjoining the kitchen is an equally impressive laundry room which is very spacious and enjoys a view over the gardens and access to the patio.
The master suite on the main floor is a separate wing of approximately 700 sq. ft. The closet, spa bath, sitting and sleeping areas are all of grand proportion, presenting simply the finest master one could envision, a true retreat!
The upper level provides two bedrooms, each with a spa influenced ensuite bathroom and walk in closet.
The caretaker’s suite, media room plus an abundance of storage are on the lowest level.
This residence is ideal for a discerning buyer with discerning taste. There is not another like it in Victoria.
The location is ideal, only blocks from the Yacht Club and ocean.
