A meticulously-curated vision inspired by Una Bella Casa - an effortless and understated sense of classic Italian elegance for your home. And while the idea of elegant living is universal, like art itself it is both ephemeral and timeless. That is what awaits at Solterra Development’s ITALIA in the prestigious South Granville neighbourhood.
Conceived by award-winning IBI Group architects, this intimate 11-storey building offers 47 finely crafted one, two and three-bedroom residences, including two penthouses and four townhomes with open-air balconies or terraces to take in spectacular mountain and ocean views from Kitsilano’s parks and beaches.
The interior design language of ITALIA is about fine details and decorative elements. It begins with three designer colour schemes, appropriately named for major cities within Italy – Amalfi, Firenze (Florence), and exclusive to the Private Collection, Venezia (Venice), solid core interior doors with Colombo door hardware, wide plank, wire brushed oak engineered hardwood flooring and square edge baseboards. The kitchen and bathroom cabinetry are hand crafted in Northern Italy; while the gourmet kitchens comes with a Gaggeneau appliance package with WiFi smart appliance capabilities with personalized control, notifications, and remote diagnostics via Home Connect app.
“At ITALIA, we're excited to offer the option for customizations, including combining units to create a spacious larger home, allowing our residents to truly make their homes theirs,” says Amy Harper, Sales Manager for Italia. “Working directly with our developers' interior designer, buyers can tailour their living spaces to their tastes and needs, ensuring each home is a personal sanctuary.”
From the first step into the private amenities, you are immediately immersed into the journey and experience that is ITALIA. Homeowners will have access to indoor and outdoor comforts, such as Cinema e Bar, a private movie theatre complete with a wet bar. Then, the Salotto e Cucine begs you to get comfortable in the sitting room, before dining in the epicurean kitchen with inviting dining table and large TV. Or, if you prefer, dine al fresco outside by the BBQ kitchen and dining table.
The building is complete with a children’s outdoor play area, bike storage and repair station, pet spa, and La Palestra, a fitness studio.
ITALIA's location will maximize views overlooking English Bay and downtown, while still being part of a friendly, a walkable neighbourhood, minutes to Granville Island, Kitsilano, the sea wall and South Granville fabulous shops, restaurants and galleries.
“ITALIA is perfectly positioned to offer the best of urban living with seamless access to both daily conveniences and cultural landmarks. Our residents benefit from a vibrant community atmosphere, surrounded by diverse dining, shopping, and recreational options,” says Leanne Rundle, Marketing and Creative Director, Solterra Developments.
ITALIA brings all the best Vancouver has to offer within minutes of your new home. You are also walking distance to South Granville SkyTrain station, Granville Island and the West 4th commercial district.
Lace up your runners because you are close to Kitsilano Beach and Vanier Park, and one block from the Arbutus Greenway. Let’ not forget, ITALIA is steps to the future South Granville Station Block stop (part of the Broadway Subway Project), which will expand light rail transit to UBC in the west and connect to other major Skytrain lines in the east.
