We are pleased to present this terrific, one-level, solid 1950's home in the sought-after Maplewood neighbourhood. You are welcomed by gleaming oak flooring, light-filled, open-concept living and dining room areas, with a skylight, windows all around and a cozy gas fireplace. The updated kitchen is a chef's delight, and features a fantastic island/eating bar. Recent upgrades include a brand-new, step-in shower in the main bathroom, and newer hot water tank. There are 2 spacious bedrooms in the main home, including the primary with 4 piece ensuite bathroom. The private, fully-fenced backyard would be perfect for container gardening and possibly a hot tub? To complete the package, there is a cute, 1 bedroom mortgage helper/in-law suite. This excellent and central location is just a short cycle or drive away from Mt. Douglas Park and hiking trails, UVic, and all shopping amenities. Welcome home!
