128 Union Street, Nelson

Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this uniquely private property. This 3 bedroom, 4 bath home was renovated by architect Thomas Loh in 2016. Located on the country lane of Union, minutes from downtown, this secluded gem experiences minimal noise from vehicular traffic. The addition to the main and the new-build of upper floor, has created a home replete with windows, from picture to clerestory. Plays of light enter from all four sides without neighbors looking in; panoramic views of the West Arm will inspire and soothe you even on the grey days. The main floor boasts solid oak floors, 10+' ceilings and archways with a Hearthstone Mansfield stove sitting in river rock and electric dumbwaiter nearby for transferring wood. Custom ornate railings, chandeliers and patio doors all contribute to the impressive yet welcoming feel. The kitchen is charming, spacious and functional. Glass block half way up the spiral staircase that sweeps from main to upper is a statement to this home's architectural harmony. Rest and relax in the tranquil upstairs with polished concrete floors, in-floor heating and balanced layout. A corner tub in the master suite with a view of Kokanee Glacier sets the stage for a staycation any day of the year. Practical features include off-street parking, HRV, two hot water systems, laundry chute, flex TV room, generous storage, cold/wine cellar and suite (formerly a secondary suite). The truly exceptional garden completes the positive energy. (id:1945)
