This House Has "CHI" This artfully restored authentic Salt Spring Island heritage house has many unique and charming features. Built on-site in 1912 of full dimension old growth Douglas fir, it has settled and stood with grace...and a little whimsy, for nearly a century. And it has that je ne sais quoi; it has "CHI". Situated within walking distance to town, on (just shy of two acres) it is both private and accessible. The ground level entry through patio gardens and a lovely ‘loggia’ creates a feeling of ‘human scale’ despite the substantial size of this 3 level 4 bedroom, 2 bath main home with additional one-bedroom suite and studio/workshop on the lower level. Many original features lend this house true warmth and substance: original edge-grain Douglas Fir flooring throughout the main level; original beautifully painted tongue and groove fir panelling through the dining room and main halls into the kitchen and breakfast room imbue these spaces with depth, warmth and texture. This house has been an artist’s textural palette. Lost details drawn out, structural elements enhanced and special relationships emphasized, and sophisticated colour laid upon the subtle wear of generations. Detail Sheet |
