Coastal Point

The eagles, the whales, and even the seals have stopped… and gathered in front of your new home, to gaze, and wonder. You might enjoy watching them as they pass by foraging, frolicking. But they are watching you too - it’s your home they’ve come to see. Enjoy the company.

Dramatic new butterfly rooflines on Coastal Point renovation creating inclusive layout with forest and ocean views

This award-winning renovation breathes new life into a once-dated property, reimagining it as a sustainable, accessible masterpiece designed for aging in place. Nestled between old-growth forest and the rugged shoreline, the home now seamlessly bridges the gap between land and sea.

Dramatic new rooflines rise from the center, creating a spacious, inclusive layout that centralizes entertaining areas and frames dual views of the woods and water. Both smart and sustainable in design, this home features: property-felled timber, repurposed masonry, cutting-edge smart technology, high-performance insulation, and helical pile foundations to protect sensitive archaeological sites. Awkward foundation angles were transformed into functional art through custom built-ins, hidden storage, and spa-like tile showers.

Featuring a games room, floor-to-ceiling wine cabinets and expansive continuous decks that flow into the natural landscape, this beauty is built for hosting.

A multi-faceted climate system (heat pumps, radiant heat, and HRV) ensures superior air quality while an integrated elevator and thoughtful transitions ensure this coastal retreat can  functionally be a ‘forever home’.

Other noteworthy elements include: the ocean-view hot tub/shower combo, native and riparian-sensitive landscaping, and advanced envelope engineering designed to withstand the exposed coastal environment while maximizing energy efficiency.

Client testimonial

"Our building experience was complex and protracted, involving significant regulatory, environmental, engineering, and archaeological challenges. Facet worked closely with us over three years to navigate these hurdles before construction could even begin, and their guidance and support were greatly appreciated. The construction phase itself was exceptionally well planned, supervised, and staffed with the Valley’s finest craftsmen, workers, and subcontractors. Keen attention to detail prevented surprises and the job site was consistently cleaned up at the end of each day, with tools safely stored.

Communication was outstanding and we were also very impressed by the thoughtful design ideas Facet offered during the initial stages and throughout the project, many of which we incorporated. We built the home with the goal of achieving a strong Step 4 certification, which we were thrilled to accomplish. The fit and finish were flawless.

In the end, we realized the dream home we had always envisioned for this property. The house advanced to the finals in several award categories and ultimately won a VIBI award here on Vancouver Island. The entire Facet team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They took genuine pride in building our home. We also engaged Facet’s Landscape Designer to beautifully refinish the entire property under her expert direction.

Many thanks to Facet for a job exceptionally well done."
