West Coast Modern, the real estate agency with a focus on culturally significant modern architecture, has recently listed the Tree House, a beautiful composite of tranquil mountainside living and visionary West Coast architecture nestled in the Lions Bay neighborhood of West Vancouver.
Originally designed by Hassell/Griblin in 1974, the home is a unique iteration of the duo’s experimental body of work focused on vertical, voluminous structures often set on unbuildable, difficult sites. The structure hews closely to its steep, forested site, offering a masterful fusion of indoor and outdoor living.
Within, 2,317 square feet of living space across four levels supports 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. The voluminous yet intimate spaces unfold in a graceful descent, creating a captivating dance of light, structure, and nature that frames lush woodland vistas and views of the distant Howe Sound.
In 2019 the Tree House received a thoughtful update and addition from D’Arcy Jones studio, adding a patio space and enhancing this unparalleled live/work family haven.
A vital link between historic and contemporary West Coast design, the Tree House now offers you a place in its storied legacy and awaits its next custodian. Click here to view the full listing details.
