Sold late August for nearly $2.75 million, Arthur Erickson's Filberg House in Comox, British Columbia was designed in 1959 and is said to be the first residential property designed by the Vancouver-born architect. The recent sale of the home has stirred up some concern amongst Erickson fans. Some worry about the future of the residence, specifically in regards to its historical preservation. 

Architectural photographer and board member of the Arthur Erickson Foundation and a long-time friend of the architect told CBC that he strongly believed the home should be preserved and that "It should be with architectural people who can decide who is best to have it. I would love to see the city of Comox take it over and have it as a center."

The Mid-Century Modern home has 14-foot ceilings and 280 degree views of its 7+ acre lot. The Filberg House also boasts more than 700ft of waterfront, overlooks the Salish Sea, Comox Bay, Mt. Washington, and Beaufort Mountain range. It has 4 bedrooms and 3 baths. Throughout the home, expansive glazing, wood, and hard surfaces give the home a minimalist but striking impression, that takes in its surroundings and propels the viewer into the panoramic landscape.
