Spend a week north of the border in the stately comfort of a unique colonial estate on a private lake in the most serene setting you could imagine. This exquisite home is nestled into the wonderful British Properties neighborhood originally developed by the Guinness Family — in West Vancouver on a private lake. This majestic home is located above Vancouver’s beautiful downtown area looking back up to the snow covered Coastal Mountain peaks. The home includes four bedrooms, a game room, a media room, a chef’s kitchen, and large dining and living rooms replete with fireplaces.

Activities include; trout fishing in your private lake, heron and eagle viewing in your backyard, paddle boarding, swimming, feeding the wild ducks, and mountain hiking from your front door. There will be a house manager/concierge who doubles as a wonderful chef available to you during your stay to help with planning your activities, dining, sightseeing, and housekeeping. You and your family or friends can enjoy peace and serenity knowing that the sights, sounds, and rich culture of Vancouver are minutes away over the stunning Lion’s Gate Bridge, while the serenity and beauty of West Vancouver and the Burrard Inlet coastline loom majestic from your windows and a walk away.

Consistently and universally named one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Vancouver is the largest city in British Columbia and Western Canada. The host to the 2010 Winter Olympic Games and the permanent new home of the TED conference, Vancouver is a hub of filmmaking, a leader in resources, and Canada’s new tech center.

Feeling adventurous? Head to Whistler Mountain along the most majestic fiord in the world, where you can zip line, snowshoe, ski the glacier in the summer or the entire mountain in the winter, golf world class links, or stay close and hike the Grouse Grind, or take the Sky Ride, North America's largest aerial tramway system. Take in the incredible scenes at the famous fresh produce market at Granville Island, spend the day in Stanley Park, swim in ocean pools, go salmon fishing, and ride the ferries to Vancouver, Bowen, Dent and dozens of the Gulf Islands.

Vancouver and British Columbia are cornucopias of endless wonders, and your home and your personal care will be nothing short of a lifelong memory. For more information, visit http://grovelandestate.com/.
