Jul 11 2025, 8:55 pm

A White Rock mansion with some eye-popping features is still on the market over a month after its initial listing, but it’s going to cost you a pretty penny if you want to move in.

The 12,022 sq. ft. home, located at 13790 Marine Dr., has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms and sits on a 67,000 sq. ft. lot.

The “spectacular gated waterfront masterpiece” has amenities like Italian marble fireplaces, an outdoor swimming pool and a private elevator. The Metro Vancouver property has also seen a massive price jump over its last sale price.

The White Rock residence that’s just a six-minute drive from the city’s pier is currently listed for $13.488 million.

This is still vastly higher than the current 2025 assessed value of $10.51 million, which is itself up slightly from its assessment value from the year before.

According to REW, the property was last sold in June 2005 at a price of only $2.5 million. The current home was constructed in 2010 and is 15 years old.

There are plenty of features for a potential buyer to enjoy, not to mention the panoramic views of Semiahmoo Bay from each floor of the house.

Luxury amenities include an amethyst feature wall, marble flooring with radiant floor heating, a wine cellar, and a Hollywood-style media room.

There’s a fully-equipped gym, a sauna, and a steam shower for when you need to work up a sweat. And if you’ve ever wanted a chandelier in your bedroom, this home is your opportunity.

Just in time for summer relaxation, there’s an infinity pool, an outdoor shower, and a hot tub to relax in.

Greater Vancouver Realtors (GVR) and the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board (FVREB) both saw the housing markets in their separate jurisdictions edge toward more relatively balanced conditions in June 2025, though each jurisdiction appears to be experiencing the transition differently.

According to GVR, home sales in its area totalled 2,181 units in June 2025, representing a 9.8 per cent decline compared to the same month last year. However, this marks a significant improvement from May 2025’s sharper year-over-year decline of 19 per cent, suggesting the market may be beginning to stabilize.

Meanwhile, FVREB reported 1,195 unit sales in June 2025, up about one per cent from May 2025 but still approximately nine per cent below June 2024 levels. While the pace of sales in FVREB’s jurisdiction remained steady month-over-month, overall activity continued to lag behind historical norms, reflecting lingering caution among buyers.

While the residence at 13790 Marine Dr. may be out of the budget for many homebuyers in the region, B.C. is tied for the largest annual decline in apartment rents in all of Canada. However, Vancouver continues to be one of the most expensive places to rent in the country.
