Vancouver luxury real estate: $48M mansion hits market

One of Vancouver’s “finest private estates” – perched on a Point Grey property with ocean views – has hit the market for the staggering asking price of $48 million.

Listed this week by Stilhavn Real Estate Services, the seven-bedroom, eight-bathroom, 12,048-square-foot mansion even boasts its own name – Casa Blanca.

“(It) offers unmatched seclusion, a palpable connection to nature, and magical coastal views. This modern beach house seamlessly intertwines grand scale with intimate design to create understated elegance and sophistication,” the listing says, noting it has never been on the market before.

1450 Blanca Street was assessed as one of the 10 most expensive properties in the province by BC Assessment for 2024, coming in the number nine spot.

The total value was assessed at $38,044,000, with the land accounting for $20,631,000 of that figure and the buildings for $17,413,000.
