We have listed a new property at 4538 Magnolia ST in Vancouver
This location cannot be beat. QUILCHENA PARK on one side, the ARBUTUS CORRIDOR behind, the ARBUTUS CLUB 2 minute walk away and a 10 min drive anywhere in Vancouver including downtown.
The home is unique: think MID CENTURY design from 1966 with influences from Japan, glass, high ceilings, post and beam. Private entrance along Magnolia st makes you wonder what you will find and around the corner you find a glassed entrance with a prominent magnolia tree. The main floor opens with a foyer that leads to an open plan dining room, living room, kitchen, eating area and den. These rooms are all surrounded by floor to ceiling windows and glass doors to the outside. Laundry room, office/guest room, mudroom and storage complete the first floor.
Upstairs you will find high vaulted post and beam ceilings inside each of the 3 bedrooms. Two bedrooms have sunny south west decks facing the park.
4 piece bath for the kids and a 5 piece master ensuite with a shower that almost feels like you are in the park! Master is extra large with a sitting area and walk in closet.
Downstairs you will find a fully renovated den/playroom, built-ins, art space/studio.
Outdoor spaces include a covered dining area off the living room with built in heaters and a fish pond. Facing south there is a lounge area and BBQ spot surrounded by established gardens. In the back there is a secret twinkling light garden filled with grape vines, kiwi vines, pear apples, plums, currants and more. Off the garage is a gated area perfect for kids to play basketball, skateboard, hockey etc.
Renovated over the last few years, this home retains the cool feel of midcentury with the modern touches of today.
