    Discovering The Perry Estate: An Arthur Erickson Masterpiece at 3526 Everglade Place

    Nestled discreetly behind an unassuming chain-link fence in North Vancouver's Delbrook neighborhood lies a hidden gem of architectural significance: The Perry Estate. Designed in 1963 by the renowned Canadian architect Arthur Erickson, this residence offers a rare glimpse into mid-century modern design, harmoniously blending Japanese-inspired aesthetics with the natural beauty of the West Coast. A Sanctuary for Artists Originally conceived as a retreat for sculptor Frank Perry, The Perry Estate has been a haven for creativity. Notably, it also served as a workspace for the esteemed Haida artist Bill Reid. For over six decades, this sanctuary has quietly nurtured artistic expression, its walls echoing with the inspirations of Vancouver's most influential creators. Architectural Elegance As you approach the 2,528-square-foot, single-story home, its modest exterior offers little hint of the architectural marvel within. Stepping inside, you're greeted by interiors adorned with old-growth cedar, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The design features angled skylights and clerestory windows, thoughtfully positioned to bathe the space in natural light, enhancing the connection between indoor and outdoor environments. One of the home's standout features is its hidden courtyard—a serene enclave that offers privacy and a direct link to nature. Throughout the residence, intricate mother-of-pearl inlays add a touch of elegance, reflecting Erickson's meticulous attention to detail. Preservation of Original Design The current custodian, a modernist home collector from California, has maintained the property in near-original condition. This dedication to preservation allows The Perry Estate to stand as a testament to Erickson's visionary design, offering a unique opportunity to experience his work as it was initially envisioned. A Rare Opportunity Now listed for $2.85 million, The Perry Estate awaits its next steward. This property is more than just a home; it's a piece of art history, a sanctuary for inspiration, and a rare example of Arthur Erickson's unpublished works. For those seeking a residence that embodies artistic heritage and architectural brilliance, 3526 Everglade Place presents an unparalleled opportunity.To View the full MLS listing Click HereListed for sale by Trent Rodney and Jason Choi Prec with Royal LePage Sussex and West Coast Modern at Westcoastmodern.ca.To Organize a showing, call Harrison Peers at 604-315-7227

  • Vancouver’s Ultra-Luxury Real Estate: Surprisingly Affordable Compared to Global Markets,Harrison Peers

    Vancouver’s Ultra-Luxury Real Estate: Surprisingly Affordable Compared to Global Markets

    When people think of luxury real estate, cities like New York, Los Angeles, and London often come to mind as the epicenters of high-end living. However, Vancouver has quietly established itself as a premier destination for ultra-luxury real estate—offering world-class penthouses and opulent detached residences at a fraction of the cost of similar properties in these global hotspots. Penthouses: High-End Living at a Lower Price Sky-high penthouses are the epitome of luxury, offering breathtaking views, sprawling layouts, and top-tier amenities. In cities like New York and Los Angeles, penthouses in prime locations can easily command prices upwards of $50 million USD. In contrast, Vancouver’s most exclusive penthouses, often boasting panoramic waterfront views, high-end finishes, and access to five-star services, can be acquired for significantly less—typically ranging from $10 million to $15 million USD, with an absolute upside of $20 million USD - a never before seen sale price for a Vancouver Penthouse. Take, for example, a luxury penthouse in Manhattan’s Billionaires’ Row, where prices soar past $80 million for ultra-exclusive residences. Meanwhile, Vancouver’s most elite penthouses, such as those at the Fairmont Pacific Rim or the Shangri-La, offer comparable luxury without the astronomical price tag. This presents an incredible value for buyers seeking unparalleled elegance in a prime urban setting. Detached Luxury Residences: More Space, Less Cost Vancouver’s detached luxury homes, particularly in neighborhoods like Shaughnessy, West Point Grey, and West Vancouver, provide an exceptional blend of privacy, space, and prestige at a much more accessible price point compared to cities like Los Angeles and London. In Beverly Hills or Bel-Air, a mansion with ocean views and high-end amenities can easily exceed $50 million USD, while in Vancouver, a similarly spectacular estate might be available for $10 million USD or less. A prime example is a waterfront estate in West Vancouver. While a comparable oceanfront property in Malibu might cost upwards of $100 million, Vancouver’s equivalent estates, offering just as much exclusivity and scenic beauty, remain a relative bargain with prices at the absolute high end of $36 million USD, and many comparable waterfront estates at a more reasonable $10 million to $20 million USD. Buyers seeking sprawling mansions, private gated properties, and breathtaking views can secure world-class residences for significantly less than they would pay in other global markets. Why Vancouver Stands Out Beyond affordability in the upper echelons, Vancouver offers distinct advantages that make it an attractive destination for luxury buyers: Natural Beauty & Quality of Life: With its stunning coastal setting, mountain views, and mild climate, Vancouver is consistently ranked as one of the world’s most livable cities. Political & Economic Stability: Compared to other global markets, Vancouver provides a safe and stable investment environment for high-net-worth individuals. Proximity to Global Hubs: Vancouver’s strategic location offers easy access to major international markets, particularly Asia-Pacific, making it a prime choice for investors and luxury homeowners. The Smart Choice for Luxury Buyers For those looking to invest in ultra-luxury real estate without overpaying, Vancouver offers a unique opportunity. Whether it's an opulent penthouse overlooking the city skyline or a waterfront mansion with expansive views, Vancouver provides exceptional value compared to other top-tier global cities. As demand for elite properties continues to grow, now is the perfect time to explore Vancouver’s ultra-luxury real estate market—where world-class living comes at a surprisingly competitive price.When purchasing high-end real estate, buy with confidence at Sotehby's International Realty Canada.
