484 Westmount Drive, London ON N6K 1X5

Description

The Chalet on Westmount. There’s a hint of B.C. vibe to this unique multi-level London home built into a wooded hillside overlooking the city, with a private separate deck nestled into a grove of mature trees. The style of the home is reminiscent of the work of prominent Palm Springs California mid-century modern architect William Krisel. It echoes his signature V-shaped roofline, multiple skylights and seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living. Outer walls are lined with oversize windows, affording mesmerizing vistas from every room in the home. A rear patio is accessed from the lower level and overlooked from an expansive deck stretching across the back of the home above the upper storey. This natural oasis is the go-to setting for relaxation or entertaining. Extensively renovated, inside and out. Its original Douglas fir exterior has been overlaid with stone, that blends with the surrounding nature. Inside, the main level comprises an open-concept kitchen, dining area and great room. The kitchen showcases custom cabinets by Cardinal Fine Cabinetry, leathered quartz counters, European fixtures and high-end appliances. In the great room, a clay brick accent wall with a slate fireplace faces the wall of rear windows. On the upper level the primary bedroom suite opens to a sizeable deck overlooking a meticulously landscaped lawn. A spa-like ensuite bathroom features Travertine walls and flooring, a Jerusalem marble vanity counter and oversize shower frame with copper accents. A soaker tub sits beneath a window to the side lawn. On the lower level a recreation room beneath the great room, with a matching slate fireplace, accesses the patio. This level also includes two additional bedrooms, as well as a three-piece bathroom finished with Carrera marble and a laundry room. The home features embroidered fabric wall coverings and oak hardwood floors. Floating staircases of African mahogany connect the levels. A must see!
