Bassano: An authentic ‘made in Italy’ lifestyle

It’s been more than two decades in the making. Now, patience and perseverance have paid off, and sales at Bassano are anticipated to begin later this spring.

Located on the cusp of Burnaby’s Brentwood neighbourhood, this iconic collection of four residential towers designed in collaboration with Arcadis Architecture holds a special significance for the Boffo family.

“Bassano del Grappa is a small village in northern Italy close to where the company’s founding family members grew up, and it still holds a cherished place in their hearts,” says Karen West, director of sales and marketing. “This new community is designed to be true to those origins, an authentic ‘Made In Italy’ experience and a legacy to Burnaby, the city where the Boffos first began building homes.”

Like all homes from this award-winning builder, Bassano’s one-, two- and three-bedroom residences are designed from the inside out to give maximum beauty and livability. “This is our fourth project to showcase Boffo’s signature G Plan, available either in a two- or three-bedroom configuration,” Karen says, adding that the wide and shallow footprint not only feels more like a single-family home, but it also allows plenty of flexibility for furniture placement.

Custom cabinetry and built-in wardrobes, dramatic slab backsplash, a full-sized Bertazzoni appliance package, as well as Gessi fixtures throughout—everything is imported from Italy and brought to life by Trepp Design Inc.

Celebrate life

Boffo’s deep-rooted commitment to creating amenities that encourage social interaction and wellness is taken to new heights at Bassano. The variety and size—more than 41,000 sq. ft. of indoor/outdoor space in total—are nothing short of breathtaking. “Our focus is always to provide multiple types of gathering spaces, inviting, elegant spaces that are an extension of each home that help foster connections with family and friends,” Karen says.

It all starts with a soaring, two-storey lobby, a perfect space to meet friends for a morning coffee, fire up your laptop in one of the work-share lounge’s individual soundproof pods, or give the perfect client presentation in the boardroom.

Explore the expansive family lounge area on the ground floor. Here’s a few hints: An indoor/outdoor children’s play area, billiards, media room, catering kitchen and dining area. Or step outdoors into the community’s lavishly landscaped 23,000-sq.-ft. park for a friendly bocce competition, followed by an al fresco barbecue on the covered terrazzo with dining and lounge seating.

When you’re ready to break a sweat, check out the second level health club with its fully equipped gym, yoga and barre studio, infrared sauna and steam room. Getting fit just doesn’t get any easier.

Impressed? Well get ready for the true pièce de resistance: A 43rd level rooftop lounge and 3,800-sq.-ft. wrap-around terrace. A more adult-oriented amenity, spectacular views in every direction, cocktails, and sunset-gazing by the firepit are sure to become a popular evening tradition.
