4. Point Grey grand residence: $28,000,000
This large, 103-year-old home on 鈥淏illionaire鈥檚 Row鈥� 鈥� Belmont Avenue 鈥� in Vancouver鈥檚 prestigious Point Grey area was in January this year for $28 million on the nose, and has seen no price drops. The house sits on a massive 35,500-square-foot ocean and mountain view property with manicure gardens, and inside there are more than 8,000 square feet of living space. This includes a grand foyer and double-height living room with huge windows, large entertaining and dining spaces, eight bedrooms, eight bathrooms, plus an indoor pool with hot tub and conservatory area.
