About this home

The smell of woodsmoke and the hush of falling snow. Yes, a gorgeous home. But also, a sort of time capsule for building mountain memories. If you’ve ever yearned for the authentic Whistler (the one built on nostalgia and the cozy warmth of a true cabin) this Alpine Meadows retreat is what you crave. Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, this home greets you with the character that modern builds often forget. You’ll find aged fir floors underfoot and magnificent reclaimed wood beams overhead. It’s the kind of craftsmanship that makes you want to slow down. The kitchen features a vintage Moffat stove that serves as a conversation piece, while a high-flush toilet adds a touch of old-world charm. If you want a home with a soul, you’ve found it.
