Welcome to this extraordinary residence located in the highly coveted Bel-Aire community. This remarkable home is the result of a meticulous collaboration between the homeowner and award-winning designer Paul Lavoie, brought to completion in 2014. The original structure was completely stripped to the studs and reimagined from the ground up, with a substantial expansion and the use of carefully selected, globally sourced premium materials.An ICF foundation was incorporated, allowing the lower level to be raised and finished with impressive 10-foot ceilings, while the main floor was redesigned to feature soaring 12-foot ceilings throughout. Thoughtful enhancements, including additional sunlight in the kitchen and main living areas, flood the home with natural light. Every element was intentionally chosen, from the statement fireplace mantels down to the finest hardware details.Offering an expansive 7,899 sq. ft. of living space, the home includes six bedrooms, five of which feature private ensuite bathrooms with heated floors—providing exceptional comfort and privacy. Upon entry, heated Crema Marfil marble flooring flows seamlessly throughout, leading you to the stunning chef’s kitchen, truly the centerpiece of the home. Outfitted with top-tier appliances, including a Wolf gas range and a Miele refrigerator/freezer (2025), this kitchen is perfectly equipped for culinary excellence.The main level balances refined elegance with everyday comfort, featuring a formal dining room ideal for hosting memorable gatherings. The owner’s retreat is a private sanctuary complete with a fireplace and an indulgent 11-piece, spa-inspired ensuite designed for total relaxation.Descend the walnut staircase to the lower level, a space crafted for leisure and entertainment. Enjoy a dedicated golf simulator room, a music room, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and a full theatre experience with projector and oversized screen. An elevator provides effortless access back to the mai n level and the heated double garage, finished with hand-laid tile and equipped with two car lifts—accommodating up to four vehicles. An oversized driveway offers four additional parking spaces for guests.Step outside to the beautifully landscaped backyard, where mature spruce trees create a sense of privacy and tranquility.

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Pick a down payment and tap any underlined number to edit. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Monthly carrying costs (shared)
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Accelerated bi-weekly frequency reduces total interest paid vs. monthly — confirm with a broker. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy. Always validate with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
