About this home

The south-facing "Ridge" House is an architectural icon on Salt Spring Island. With an expansive valley view, and overlooks two natural ponds connected by a seasonal creek with the mountains of Vancouver Island serving as backdrop. nestled in an array of gardens with water features, the design of the Ridge House was inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. The extensive use of granite, flat rooflines and a rectilinear plan are true to the inspiration, while soaring windows and skylights bring light and nature inside. Renovations include a newer chefs kitchen with Miele appliances; LED lighting and updates to the master Bedroom and ensuite. Patios and decks surround the house. A pastoral setting extraordinaire.
