Vancouver House is one of the city’s newest architectural landmarks — construction on the Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and DIALOG-designed tower was completed in 2019.
The award-winning development by Westbank is located at the foot of the Granville Street Bridge and sits as a gateway into downtown Vancouver with its twisting form and cantilevered shape.
While many residents have already moved in, there’s still a collection of quick occupancy units available, including a series of two-storey penthouse suites with sprawling city and mountain views.
Priced at $4,980,000, Penthouse 9 presents the most ‘affordable’ way into the penthouse lifestyle at Vancouver House. The 1,879-square-foot model boasts two bedrooms, two-and-half bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase majestic views of False Creek and Mount Baker.
A main floor entrance gallery welcomes you home and leads into a sprawling, open-concept living area with a dining room and a gourmet kitchen overlooking the grand salon. Rich, light-coloured wood floors in a herringbone pattern are combined with expansive windows to create an open and airy feeling throughout, while a pair of sliding glass doors provide an extension of the indoor living space into the balcony.
The sleek and sophisticated kitchen is lined with Italian Boffi cabinets, marble countertops and a matching backsplash, however, the centrepiece of the kitchen is the sculptured Corian island, custom designed by BIG. Plus, home chefs will appreciate the integrated Miele appliance package that comes complete with a wall oven and microwave, built-in coffee machine, gas range, refrigerator and wine fridge.
A U-shaped staircase leads to the second level, which houses the laundry room, linen closet and two large bedrooms. The secondary bedroom has its own private balcony and a luxurious four-piece ensuite. Meanwhile, the master bedroom is even more spacious and sports a generously-sized dressing room, private balcony, and a spa-like ensuite with a steam shower and marble finishes.
Residents of Vancouver House have access to five-star amenities, starting with a grand lobby area conceived as a contemporary art gallery with modern furnishings, sculptured mail boxes and bold light fixtures. Twenty-four-hour concierge service is provided by staff trained by the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel and includes access to a fleet of BMW vehicles. Other amenities include a heated outdoor pool, state-of-the-art fitness facilities, golf simulator, library and residents lounge.
