Taluswood is an area on the lower slopes of Whistler Mountain providing ski-in ski-out access onto the Dave Murray Downhill, site of the major Alpine skiing events in the 2010 Olympic Games. If you are looking for a top-quality home in a quiet area with a beautiful and spacious interior, but also with easy access to the slopes, this should be one of your major options. Taluswood 3 is a particularly nice example of a Taluswood chalet, with a peeled log interior, large living room with soaring cathedral ceilings, high-end kitchen, spacious bathrooms and a reassuring solidity and quality about it. Spectacular views over Alta Lake and the Whistler valley add to the appeal

Entrance is on the main level, with a private covered parking bay as well as a private garage. This leads into the hallway which offers plentiful storage space for skis and outerwear, and from here into the large living area. Just off the hallway is a guest loo.

Within the living room area two sofas and a leather armchair surround the stone wood-burning fireplace and a large LCD television is also available for apres-ski entertainment.

To the left is the extra large dining table in its own alcove, and next to that is the gourmet kitchen, which features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and cherrywood cabinetry.

Stairs lead up from the entrance hall to the master bedroom, which also has an office area on the landing. The bedroom itself has a king bed, gas fireplace and its own TV, whilst off it is an enormous ensuite bathroom with large soaker tub, separate shower stall, walk-in closet and two basins mounted on a long granite countertop down one side of the room.

Downstairs from the entrance hall are 3 further bedrooms, one with queen bed and ensuite bathroom, and two others sharing the third bathroom: one with 2 twin beds and one with 2 bunks. The private hot tub is also accessed from this level.

This is the sort of Whistler chalet which will attract the discerning guest looking for a top-class property with ski-in ski-out access and in a quiet location.
