Where architecture meets lifestyle—on a new level.
Building on the refined simplicity of its single-storey sibling, Saltspring 42 brings added space and flexibility to the signature coastal-inspired custom home design. This 42-square double-storey custom home offers the same thoughtfully considered ground floor, with private garden courtyards, curved internal walls, and a light-filled entry framed by full-height glazing.
The generous open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area remains the heart of the home, anchored by a striking pop-up ceiling and highlight windows for natural light and thermal performance. An oversized double garage connects to a functional mudroom, laundry, and butler’s pantry—ideal for busy family life.
Upstairs, the layout adapts to growing families or multigenerational living. Three additional bedrooms—including a new fourth bedroom—are joined by a central bathroom, a second powder room, a rumpus, and a quiet study zone. Downstairs, the original study location is reimagined as a staircase, maintaining smooth circulation throughout.
The ground-floor master suite retains its sense of retreat, with a large walk-in robe, ensuite, and private toilet. Covered outdoor living continues seamlessly under the main roof, extending the home into the garden.
Saltspring 42 delivers all the hallmarks of Beachstone’s architectural approach: passive design principles, double glazing, solid materials, skylights, and a seamless inside–outside connection through considered cladding choices. Every detail works together to elevate comfort, flow, and natural connection.
Like all Beachstone homes, Saltspring 42 is a pre-designed plan with the flexibility to adapt—perfect for sloping blocks or custom changes—and includes access to our full interior design service. It’s fixed-price architecture, built for how you want to live.
Saltspring 42 isn’t just a larger home—it’s a complete lifestyle solution for families needing more space without compromise.
