This view is a way of life at this amazing home. Designed by H. Schubart, who studied with Frank Lloyd Wright, and moved to Salt Spring Island from California, in the 1960s, this is a beautiful rendering of the very best of "West Coast Contemporary" design and execution.
The original home of H. Schubart, with many unique features and finishes, the property and home have been lovingly maintained and softly updated by various owners.
Although built some years later, the double garage/workshop is also a Schubart design, and is integral to that wonderful Zen/Scandanavian allure that he was famous for.
A separate but nearby parcel of land "goes with" this waterfront "mini-point" property and home...Schubart purchased it some years ago so that the road arrival to his home would also go past forest allure. A very nice feature, indeed!
The level entry home offers formal entry/foyer, gallery/library hall, open plan living and dining, vaulted ceiling, superb wood floor (could not find this today!), cook's kitchen with breakfast area off, separate laundry with a view, guest powder room, plus special master sitting, with ensuite....all with those sensational views! A separate entry guest bedroom is also on this level, plus a large workshop/storage (artist? home occupation? finish as another bedroom?).
Lower garden level offers guest bed sitting with fireplace and private bath, plus office, "rec room" (could be another bedroom). Easy access out to garden from all principal rooms.
Sunny (s/sw/w exposures), private, a dramatic design that welcomes both a couple or a family useage, and with that lovely "blurred line" between interior and exterior...the "natural" landscaping is part of this property's appeal. Privacy fencing, too.
Easy access to the oceanfront, and with spectacular wide-angle panoramic vistas, this gem has it all! Location, natural beauty, sun exposure, privacy, design ethic....just move in and enjoy!
Call me, and let's view this beauty soon. (Note: excellent tenants in place; 24 hr. notice essential).
