The buyers were from Alberta and had been looking for more than a year, says their agent, Michelle Vaughan. They initially didn’t want a steep driveway, but Ms. Vaughan told them that if they wanted a view, it would be hard to avoid.

She said her buyers got “a very fair deal.”

There was some back and forth on the price but overall, the deal went smoothly, she says.

“It wasn’t quite super easy, there was some negotiation. But there was no competition.”

The agent’s take

“The people who built the house were engineers, who did a great, solid-quality build. It’s modern, luxurious and has a gorgeous view, with a crazy cool area in the back,” Ms. Vaughan says. “It’s one of those things that wouldn’t appeal to everybody, but it’s dramatic and gorgeous.”
