Rockbank

Winner, Best Custom Home Valued Over $3,000,000

Perched atop a south-facing mountain slope, optimizing unbelievable ocean views, this home is literally pinned into solid bedrock. The amazing design was created by Turner Architecture, and the home?s form and construction were influenced entirely by the topography; narrow on street side and fanning out to a curving front on the ocean side.

Zero-maintenance materials ensure the home?s natural integration with solid granite facings, zinc soffits hand-formed zinc shingled roof, and a commercial-style low-e glass south-facing wall.

This modern design based on a traditional centre-hall plan captures the natural light resulting in amazing views and brightness throughout the home. Rooms feature curved partition-style walls that never meet the ceilings above and the roof appears to be floating above it all! A massive vertical granite fireplace rises two levels. The well-appointed kitchen is literally the hub of the home and the ?tucked away? master suite features a huge dressing room, spa-bath and separate soaker tub with an amazing private view!
