And if you needed any evidence of how much lower expectations are among Metro Vancouver's high-end home sellers in 2018, this is surely it – the home’s new list price is more than $15 million below its original ask.

The 10,595-square-foot house with sprawling woodland property was , following award-winning renovations, at a whopping $38 million. With no evidence of a sale at that time, the home was this week put back on the market for $24,975,000. That’s $15,025,000 lower than the original sticker price, a drop of more than 34 per cent.

The Tudor-style mansion was built in 1929 for the president of СÀ¶ÊÓƵ Electric, and extensively renovated in 2015 to high acclaim. It has six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, a mix of traditional and modern decor, indoor-outdoor living space, a contemporary infinity pool and terrace with amazing views, and 4.25 acres of land, including its own woodland park with lake and putting green.
