5 MOST EXPENSIVE HOUSES ON THE VANCOUVER MARKET
Vancouver is a city famous for its rainy winters, snowcapped mountains, lush forests, and ocean views. We’re a city well known for being an Olympic host as well as a multicultural hub. Another thing we’re famous for? Consistently being ranked as one of the most expensive real estate markets in the world. In a place where million dollar teardowns are becoming old news, living a life of luxury here on the West Coast is not for the faint of heart (or should we say, wallet). We’ve rounded up the five most expensive houses currently listed within the City of Vancouver, and let’s just say the results are extravagant.

With ultra-luxe features like a private tennis and basketball court and a wine cellar fit for a King and Queen, there's pretty little here to be left for want.
$35,000,000
This private Point Grey estate is the stuff of modern day fairytales. The elegant design is sleek and contemporary without being clinical, and the soft palette of colours lends this mega-home a welcoming feel. Outside you’ll find a park’s worth of grassy space, a swimming pool, a water fountain, as well as a fire-pit and eating area. Of course, the beauty of the manicured yard is rivaled only by the picture-perfect mountain, city, and ocean views.

$44,999,000
This is about as quintessentially Shaughnessey as they come. Once the home of former Lieutenant Governor Eric Hamber, this heritage mansion is nothing short of extraordinary. With features running the range of unique curved architecture, beautiful wainscoting, multiple wine cellars, and even an art deco parkade, it’s easy to see why this one tops our list. Besides the main house, this property includes two other estates spread across four strata lots that contain 17 bedrooms, 23 bathrooms, and 6 kitchens between them. Room for everyone, and then some.
