Just beyond Royal Oaks Golf Club, tucked quietly at the end of the street, is a home that feels more discovered than found. The most private property on the block unfolds inward around a dramatic two-story atrium, where light pours down from a skylight above, where grow lights nurture greenery year-round, turning the heart of the home into a living, breathing centerpiece.Massive windows stretch in every direction, framing views of the oak tree preserve and the swimming pool beyond. The connection to nature is constant; sunlight shifts, leaves move, water glimmers. A sunken living room wrapped in forest-facing glass creates an intimate gathering space, as close as Vancouver gets to a true conversation pit. In the living room, restored geometric wood walls flank the updated wood-burning fireplace, returned to their original organic beauty after years hidden beneath paint.Outside, the home continues its quiet drama. Native landscaping fills the front yard, seeded with eco-lawn and intentionally left to rest, honoring a “leave the leaves” philosophy. A welded metal pathway leads to a fire pit area near covered wood storage, while the opposite side of the home reveals an in-ground kidney shaped pool over eight feet deep, complete with an included hot tub on the covered deck. It’s private, serene, and unexpected.The primary suite is expansive, with a tucked-away office nook affectionately called “the treehouse,” offering treetop views and creative calm; with private access to an expansive deck overlooking the pool. Upstairs bedrooms feature clean carpet, while brand-new hickory engineered hardwood flows through the stairs, primary suite, and hallways. Practical upgrades abound: three garages plus a mini garage for a golf cart or pool storage, an added garage pantry with utility sink, and a new HVAC system, water heater, and roof, all under five years old.
