A Breakthrough in Sustainable Luxury Living
Vancouver’s First Net Zero Labeled Duplex
The first duplex in Vancouver to achieve this energy efficient standard.
An inspired team of professionals came together to plan, develop, and construct exceptional homes located on a quiet side street just 2-blocks off Main Street.
Each residence offers 3-bedrooms + office nook and 3.5 bathrooms all above grade.
About
This stunning duplex features a meticulously designed interior with thoughtful selections throughout.
The main level boasts soaring 10-foot ceilings and beautiful oak hardwood flooring, complemented by custom oak millwork and solid core doors for a refined touch.
Ample storage solutions are seamlessly integrated, while a 9-foot sliding glass wall allows for optimal indoor-outdoor living, blurring the lines between the two spaces.
The kitchen is equipped with high-end Fisher & Paykel appliances and Caesarstone quartz counters, including a waterfall edge on the center island, offering both style and functionality.
In the primary bathroom, you’ll find luxurious Italian tile, a rain shower, and a double vanity, further elevated by heated flooring that extends throughout the entire home, including the bathrooms. This attention to detail creates a space that exudes both comfort and elegance.
