A great view and $80K in taxes

At $15.2 million, 3330 Radcliffe Ave. has B.C.’s highest property assessment.

If money were no object, nothing could be finer than to fork out $19.8 million to live in the style and comfort to which many wish to become accustomed.

Assessed at $15.2 million, 3330 Radcliffe Ave. in West Vancouver is the top of the heap in B.C., as the most valuable property in the eyes of the B.C. Assessment Authority. Last summer the five-bedroom waterfront home sold for $17 million after only three days on the market. Now it’s back on the market at the higher ticket price but not so quick to sell.

Could there be something wrong with the place? Sitting on 0.9 acres of waterfront, with 11,000 sq. ft. of living space, endless views and cascading water pools, it’s unlikely.

The house generates a tax bill of $80,000 a year, according to realtylink.org.
