TUCKED AWAY in Upper
Lynn Valley on the edge of
the canyon is today’s Feature
Home. Designed by architect
Doug Wong, the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Hanzlick is a
West Coast contemporary
with many luxury touches
that make this home a special
one.

A large home with 3,750
sq.ft., the rear of the house is
surrounded by forest and the
sounds of the river at the bot-
tom of the canyon below can

be heard.

The living room fireplace
facing is white cameo stone
with a Calcutta marble
hearth and a built-in wood-
box. The main floor area is
wallpapered with imported
grasscioth. Carpets are made
by Custom Weave of Califor-
nia with a 4’’ underlay.

Off the living room is a
cozy conversation pit with
the forest view and built-in
bookcases. There is also a
beamed ceiling of redwood
and built-in seating.

The kitchen has oak
cabinetry and an oak beamed
ceiling manufactured and in-
stalled by Pandolfo cabinets.
The vanities for the
bathrooms are also Pan-
dolfo. The baths, except for
the basement bath, have foil
wallpaper. The ensuite
bathroom wallpaper is silk.

Some of the other features
are a dressing room off the
master bedroom, a pantry,
lots of closets, a large formal!
dining room, a _heatilator
fireplace in the recreation
room, and a 5-zone gas-fired
hot water healing system
