 This
incredible world-class waterfront property is
situated on a south-facing promontory of 2.3
acres of beautifully treed and landscaped gardens.
It offers approximately 1500 feet of waterfront
and has a substantial dock with water lease.
The completely private setting makes one feel
as if they are living on an island within an
island. The dramatic yet welcoming custom residence
was designed in a style reminiscent of Frank
Lloyd Wright and completely compliments the setting
of exceptional Arbutus Trees. This is truly a
lifestyle retreat offering kayaking, fishing,
prawning and diving right at your front door.
The Residence
A classic contemporary home with floor to ceiling
glass designed to bring the incredible views,
sunrise to sunset, into each and every room.
The Plexiglas breezeway draws light into the
interior on the North side and brightens the
cloudiest day. From the moment you enter the
large foyer with frosted artful glass you begin
to feel the elegance and the quality of the home.
The décor is subtle toned to compliment
the marine setting, warmed with cherry wood cabinetry
and accented with marble and tile flooring. Originally
built in 1987 the home has undergone a major
upgrading by the present owners. The roof (torched
on) is only 4 years old. The main floor provides
all principal living rooms plus master suite.
The lower level provides office and fitness center
with indoor pool. The hot tub is on the exterior
patio from the lower level, the perfect place
to enjoy a moonlight night or a morning wakeup
in complete privacy. The lower level also provides
two more bedrooms and bathrooms, storage and
utility. The home is air-conditioned and there
are two air exchange systems, one solely for
the pool room. The pool has an
electric cover and wet bar adjoining.
The Property
The land is exceptionally private and offers
almost 1500 feet of shoreline with easy access
in many areas to the beach. The foreshore lease
holds a substantial dock completely out of view
of the main home. The islands off the shore attract
abundant marine life including Seals, Eagles,
and Herons. The garden has an abundance of patios
plus the home itself has many decks, creating
the ultimate in indoor and outdoor living. The
property has a greenhouse and storage shed/workshop.
The landscaping is mature with rhodendrons, spectacular
and artful Arbutus trees, flowerbeds and sprinkling
system. Many paths meander throughout the property
allowing for various vantage points to appreciate
the incredible views.
The Location
Ardmore is considered one of the finest locations
in Victoria and is approximately 20 minutes from
the Inner Harbour and 10 minutes to Victoria
International Airport. You can access by seaplane
or boat. The incredible world class Butchart
gardens are ten minutes away.
