Stunning B.C. home of Vancouver's Cobie Smulders revealed

Cobie Smulders, one of the stars of How I Met Your Mother, The Avengers, and many other TV shows and movies, has a home here in B.C., and it is stunning.

Luxury Listings recently shared a post about Smulders’ massive B.C. home on Instagram.

While the exact location is unknown, some speculate that it is located in Alta Lake or somewhere else near Whistler.

“When she finally found the right parcel of land; expansive, remote, framed by mountains on all sides and opening to a private lake, she called the architect she had admired since childhood,” Luxury Listings wrote in its post.

Smulders spoke to Architectural Digest about her home, saying that after growing up in the Vancouver suburbs, she had always dreamed of living out in the wilderness.

“I had a lot of friends who had family cabins on the islands, or up in Whistler, and I would try to join their family vacations as much as possible,” she said.

“Going from that initial meeting to an actual finished home required patience. Smulders, along with her husband, comedian Taran Killam, spent years hunting for the ideal plot of land until Killam came across a large, remote parcel situated on an expansive lake and framed by mountains on all sides,” Architectural Digest said.

Architectural Digest says that Smulders turned to Elizabeth MacKenzie, PlaidFox Studio, and Skladan Architecture “to help design the retreat.”

Another Canadian icon whose home was recently put up for sale is Sarah McLachlan. Her stunning property recently had a price drop and is now listed for $21 million.

Smulders isn’t the only star who enjoys the B.C. wilderness. We recently reported that one of the stars of The Hangover lives on an island in B.C.
