Every so often, a home comes along that truly raises the bar. This is it. Rarely do newly built, architecturally designed properties hit the market on the Northwest Arm - and this one is nothing short of spectacular. Modern and clean, yet warm and inviting, it's both a showpiece and a place you’ll want to call home. And yes, it comes with its own boathouse. Custom designed and built, the details impress at every turn: five bedrooms (three with ensuites), six bathrooms, a study, gym, mudroom, and multiple decks. The main floor is filled with natural light and water views, anchored by a massive marble island surrounded by Miele appliances and a Wolf six-burner stove - entertaining feels effortless here. Upstairs offers water views from three bedrooms, spa-like baths with heated floors, and a laundry room that makes chores easy. The walk-out level adds in-floor heating, a second fireplace, gym, family space, and another patio overlooking the Arm. The grounds strike a rare balance: manicured gardens in the front, and a natural rewilding that gently unfolds toward the boathouse and water’s edge - polished elegance meets untamed beauty. Waterfront living doesn’t get better: a pre-Confederation water lot, deep-water wharf, stone patio with firepit, and a boathouse that doubles as the ultimate hangout. Practical features round it out - ducted heat pump, Sonos system inside and out, ceiling-mounted wifi, generator hook-up, two-car garage, and low-maintenance landscaping. 1170 Rockcliffe isn't just another property - it's the one you’ve been waiting for. Rare. Refined. Architectural. Exquisite.
