Description

PANORAMIC OCEAN VISTAS
"Ravenspeak" is a custom designed and built home perched high on Mt. Parke, yet
protected from prevailing winds. Sixteen low-to-no-maintenance acres ensure your
utmost privacy while affording you space to build a very large workshop / studio and/or a
guest cottage nestled in the woods or in one of several meadows on the lower part of the
acreage, just a five minute walk to the village. A separate hydro service is already
installed on the lower part of the property, a well provides excellent quality water, and
there are several suitable access points to potential building sites from both the paved
road and the private gravel road. From the immaculate, well-maintained home on the
upper part of the acreage there are breathtaking views of Active Pass, the Strait of
Georgia, Bowen Island, Vancouver, Tsawwassen and the Coast Mountains. The eastern
and southern property lines border on park land, creating your very own hilltop paradise.
A hot tub and lots of deck space extend your pleasure outdoors. The exterior of the home
blends beautifully into the landscape and then opens up dramatically in the interior. A
two-storey glass wall and large sky-roof area flood the open plan living/dining/kitchen
areas with natural light all year round. Sunken living room, vaulted clear-cedar ceilings,
lots of windows, unusual blending of several types of wood Grafted into exquisite floors,
stairs and trim enhance this true "island" home.
 
Highlights

The efficient kitchen boasts custom
cabinetry, heated tile floor, built-in electric oven, dishwasher and gas cook-top.
The
master bedroom, with its own private little deck and separate entrance, has a walk-in
closet and en-suite bathroom with heated ceramic floor.
A two-person jetted tub beneath
the window wall of the master bedroom is a fabulous spot to watch the marine activity in
Active Pass and the Strait of Georgia by day, and the twinkling lights.
Two additional bedrooms, a
second bathroom (also with heated floor) and a laundry room / pantry round out the main
floor.
A large area of the lower level is currently an office / family room. There are also
workshop / hobby areas, a two-car garage, two-piece washroom, a roughed-in granny
suite, and lots of dry, well-ventilated storage on this level.
Outdoors: a garden shed, wood
shed, kindling shed, and a small deer-fenced area for a garden or dog run.
The mechanics:
an airtight wood-stove with glass doors, electric baseboard heating, central vacuum,
interior 1000 gallon water storage tank.
This spectacular home even comes with a 12 kilowatt diesel power plant to generate
the entire house when necessary.
