Congrats to the seller of this Gorgeous Whistler Townhouse!

Ski season is right around the corner, and if you’ve been looking at rental properties, you know that prices are soaring as usual! Luckily, our client just sold a quarter share of this massive Whistler townhouse. That means throughout the season, the owner can vacation in Whistler’s Village North for a fraction of the price of an entire home. Plus, they can use their portion as an income property when they’re not utilizing it themselves!

Expansive Yet Refined

The three-bedroom, three-bath Whistler townhouse at 4728 Settebello Drive is part of the executive Montebello community. This isn’t your typical, tiny vacation home, either. These Whistler townhomes are massive, with two stories, open floor plans, sky-high vaulted ceilings, and extra spacious bedrooms. The luxurious European decor combined with the enormous windows and epic views will remind them every second that they’re tucked away in their happy place in the mountains.

Stainless steel and granite in the kitchens to cook a meal fit for a king, a gas fireplace to warm up their toes, plus a private outdoor jacuzzi to soothe their worn-out muscles are just some of the luxe comforts that await them after a long day on the slopes of hiking the mountains.

Location that Cannot Be Beat

Sometimes when shopping for a townhouse in Whistler , you have to pick and choose your battles. But the new buyers really got it all. A huge luxury whistler townhome plus an incredible location. Whistler Village North is the perfect spot for people who want a nice, quiet place away from the madness to rest their heads. But they won’t miss out on the action either. The center of the Village is only a three-minute shuttle ride away.

Now that they have a vacation home they can use year-round, they’ll get to experience the magic of Whistler in summer as well. The Valley Trail, a 46-kilometer-long paved trail that winds through Whistler’s neighbourhoods, is just steps away from this whistler listing. The path is the perfect way to explore Whistler by bike or foot.

What Does Fractional Ownership Really Mean?

If you’re new to the idea of fractional ownership, let us break it down for you! When you purchase a quarter share, you will have access to the property one week out of each month. The time frame will rotate each year so that you will have possession of the home during a specific holiday like Christmas once every four years.

While this arrangement is kind of like a timeshare, there are some significant differences. For starters, you have quarter equity in the asset. That means as the property’s value increases, the equity you have in it also appreciates. On top of that, you’re allowed to occupy the house much more than a traditional timeshare. If you aren’t interested in using the property during your week, you can rent it out.
