Description
Magnificent Mid-Century Modern Masterpiece! The Filberg House was built in 1959 by Canada’s most celebrated Modernist, Arthur Erickson. Considered by many to be amongst the most perfect examples of modernist creation, marrying landscape with architecture. Glacial peaks backdrop sprawling ocean vistas throughout this amazing, south facing acreage. Meadows and forest surround the home, at one with the land sculpted by Erickson’s vision. Glass walls offset by granite and exotic wood over polished marble floors, the elongated structure is designed to embrace light from all angles. Skylights stretch the length of each axis, carved into the high arched ceilings. Giant barrel lights dazzle at night. This home is a work of art. Nearly 8 acres of privacy, the property is fully fenced and offers a caretaker’s cottage plus a huge accessory building once used as a helicopter hanger, complete with landing pad. Don’t miss this truly irreplaceable, one-of-kind opportunity for the most discerning.
