Elevating Luxury Living: A Visionary Custom Home Design
Seamless Blend of Modern Elegance and Personalized Comfort
Trout Lake Modern is a distinctive primary residence perfectly situated along the edge of John Hendry Park in East Vancouver.
About
This spacious custom home, designed by Peter Rose Architecture Ltd. and built by Averra Developments, offers just under 3,500 square feet of living space, perfectly crafted for an active urban family in Vancouver, BC. Spread across a basement, primary floor, and second story, the home also features a large rooftop deck and a double car garage.
The main level is designed for both functionality and entertainment, with an open-concept dining room, kitchen, and living room that seamlessly extend to a back deck. The outdoor living room, barbecue area, and south-facing lawn and gardens—beautifully maintained by Living Spaces Landscaping—provide the perfect space for relaxation and social gatherings. Additionally, a naturally lit personal office and a convenient powder room are thoughtfully integrated into the main floor layout.
Upstairs, the children’s bedrooms each include walk-in closets and personal two-piece bathrooms, which cleverly share a bath and shower room. This level also features a powder room, a cozy sitting area with a library, a linen closet, and the primary bedroom with an expansive “his and hers” walk-in closet and a luxurious ensuite bathroom.
The basement is designed with active family living in mind, featuring an oversized mudroom with ample built-in storage, a home theatre, a gym, a laundry room, a live-in nanny’s bedroom, and two additional bathrooms.
The rooftop patio was thoughtfully designed to maximize enjoyment of the surrounding views, featuring an open-air kitchen and lounging area with unobstructed vistas of the 27-hectare Trout Lake Park and the stunning North Shore Mountains.
Finally, the double-wide garage is equipped with Electric Vehicle (EV) charging and provides additional storage and security for the family.
Given the history of the Trout Lake neighbourhood, once a boggy area, extra care was taken in the construction process. Using our expertise and the support of Terracana Foundation Solutions, we reinforced the home with giant screw-piles to ensure long-term structural integrity.
This custom-built home perfectly balances modern luxury with practicality, offering the family both space and style in a vibrant, community-rich area.
