The Ranger House

 
 

Presenting Ranger House, a pristine example of West Coast modernism, conceived with precision by A.J. Capling.

Nestled on the tranquil fringes of Capilano River Regional Park, this private haven seamlessly blends mid-century modern elegance with lush forest vistas. Defined by its striking post-and-beam structure and extensive fenestration, the home draws dappled sunlight deep within. Inside, cedar plank ceilings and artfully crafted millwork echo the home’s rich heritage, radiating warmth and effortless spatial clarity. Each room fosters a deep connection to nature through views of the surrounding forest, creating a harmonious blend of west coast design and tranquil woodland serenity.

A sanctuary amidst a quiet, verdant landscape, Ranger House is poised to welcome its next custodian.

Introducing the Ranger House, a guardian of the Capilano River Regional Park for nearly 70 years.

Overlooking over 400 acres of ancient woods, it offers families a West Coast Modern gateway to a bucolic woodland playground.

Originally designed by A.J. Capling, a National Capital Commission architect, the Ranger House has been flawlessly preserved in its original condition by its recent custodians of six decades.
