Hidden away on the
Seymour River in North Van-
couver is the home of Harvey
and Railie Jackson. What
makes this house so special is
the huge three-quarter acre
lot complete with swimming
pool. Also, it is one of the
few riverfront properties
which has a natural sand
beach. Just perfect for enter-
taining large groups of peo-
ple, both the home and the
property offer privacy and
lots of space.

Near the river is a beautiful
stone barbeque.

One of the unique features
is a tunnel which leads from
the recreation room, goes
under the back yard and
emerges on the grassy lower
lawn.

When the Jacksons moved
into the 35-year-old home,
they did some renovations in-
cluding completely remodell-
ing the kitchen. An island
counter with a Jenn-Aire
range was added as was a
double oven.

The large living room has
open beams and a floor-to-
ceiling fireplace.

Up and down, there is
about 4,000 square feet of
space. There are four
bedrooms pilus a den. Other
features include new carpets
and drapes, a cabana, a great
wet bar in the recreation
room which also has a
fireplace, and a double
carport.
