A Coquitlam Classic

701 Dansey Avenue, West Coquitlam,

Named after a 60 year-old cherry blossom tree, this Japanese inspired Mid-century Modern estate is surrounded by gardens while offering views of the glimmering metropolis beyond.

Less than a half hour’s drive from downtown Vancouver in what was formerly a sleepy suburb, skyscrapers sprout from the sprawl of shopping malls as the strawberry box houses from the 1950s and ’60s vanish one by one. Nestled among soft waves of forestland beside the Vancouver Golf Club in Coquitlam, a calm, Mid-century Modern oasis—immaculately preserved, reverently upgraded—serenely holds its breath, embodying a sense of wonder while harboring the legacy of a storied past. Deep within its tranquil heart, something unexpected and enigmatic endures against the passage of time. Listed by our friends at WestCoast Modern

This is the Sakura Estate—one of the region’s most sublime examples of West Coast Modernism, the design language born when Japanese minimalist aesthetics intersect with an optimistic Pacific ethos.

xThe Sakura Estate — named after a 60-year-old cherry blossom tree that still blooms with quiet pride — is a Japanese-inspired Mid-Century Modern dream, surrounded by lush gardens and framed by skyline views of the city beyond.

Just 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver, this calm Coquitlam oasis sits beside the Vancouver Golf Club — a world away from the glass towers and busy streets. While the suburbs around it have grown up and gone vertical, this home has stayed true to its roots — immaculately preserved, thoughtfully upgraded, and deeply connected to its natural surroundings.

There’s a magic here — that rare blend of serenity and soul that defines true West Coast Modernism. Where Japanese minimalism meets Pacific optimism, and where design isn’t just about form — it’s about feeling.

Simply put, the Sakura Estate isn’t just a home. It’s a work of art that breathes.
