Presenting Bird’s Nest Residence, a private forest haven nestled in West Van’s verdant slopes. This 1958 post-and-beam home showcases our region’s West Coast vernacular with it striking roofline and meticulous timberwork. Oriented westwards, the house perches atop a rocky outcropping surrounded by swathes of lush greenery through which a private trail directly connects to a network of local hiking trails. Inside, a clever inversion of the floor plan elevates living areas to the upper floor where they are flooded with natural light. French doors open to an expansive wraparound deck, offering sweeping treetop vistas that stretch towards Howe Sound and reinforce a serene grandeur and isolation. Basking in the calm of its own forest sanctuary, Bird’s Nest Residence awaits its next custodian.
