23080 96TH AVENUE Old World elegance defines this private Fort Langley estate on 18, 731 sq. ft. of south-facing grounds backing onto parkland. An interior designer's European vision comes to life through soaring 17-foot ceilings, tall arched windows framing mature trees and gardens as the home's natural backdrop, and ornate coffered ceilings with patterned panels and detailed moldings add character. A well-designed gourmet kitchen invites gathering and entertaining, while the luxurious primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with a sitting area and gas fireplace. French doors off the Study open to a balcony overlooking established gardens. Outside, an expansive patio sets the scene for long-table dinners and outdoor living, with a hot tub for relaxing on summer evenings. A greenhouse and fruit trees for garden enthusiasts. The back gate leads to Langley Fine Arts School so children can come home for lunch. With village shops, restaurants and cafes a short stroll away, timeless character meets the ease of everyday living. (id:203)
