In West Vancouver, there are numerous waterfront properties, each as delightful as the next. But even so, you probably haven't seen one quite like this before.
Currently on the market for $24,000,000 is 5240 Marine Drive, also known as the Cotton Cove Estate. The home sits just off the west coast of West Vancouver near Gulf Beach Park, located about midway between Eagle Harbour to the north, and Lighthouse Park towards the south.
A short drive away is also the North Shore Mountains, the Gleneagles Golf Course, and the Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal, which provides convenient access to British Columbia's beautiful Sunshine Coast.
Grand and gorgeous, the 1941-constructed property features a beautiful Tudor-style home — with six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and nearly 8,000 sq. ft of living space — that sits on a waterfront lot stretching well beyond an acre, including over 300 ft of private oceanfront access.

The home's main living space features a sprawling kitchen, central living room, and a window-side dining space. The kitchen's countertops seemingly have no end, the living room is equally as spacious, and the dining room sits below a beautiful solarium-like sunroof that ushers natural light into the home.
The six wonderful bedrooms are spread out across all three levels of the home, with the primary bedroom located on the upper level. It spans 13' x 16', and features access to a glorious balcony that overlooks the estate, as well as a walk-in closet and luxurious ensuite bathroom.
Our Favourite Thing
Since it was originally constructed, Cotton Cove Estate has been extensively renovated by Russell Hollingsworth of Hollingsworth Architecture, known for its west coast modernism. The result is a home that doesn't show its age — a home that has a timeless appeal.
Outside the home, closer to the water, you'll also find a beautiful beachside studio house with its own living space, kitchen, and bedroom space, all against a set of wall-to-wall windows that stretch almost completely from floor to ceiling. This also means easy access to the patio outside, overlooking the water.
Between the main home and beachside studio is also an abundance of outdoor space, with a scenic and winding garden that leads over to a stunning pool overlooking the water — and to the horizon beyond. Oh, what a dream.
