Character without compromise in the heart of Oak Bay. Designed by renowned Victoria architect C. Elwood Watkins, this home blends classic character with modern updates and the flexibility of no heritage designation.

The adaptable 4-bedroom floor plan also offers a den/office, ideal for working from home, guests and family living, along with exceptional custom closets and storage. Upgrades include 200-amp service, a Trane heat pump with gas backup furnace and Valor gas fireplace. A large south-facing deck with gas BBQ connection overlooks the fully fenced garden with distinct outdoor living zones. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character, all in a beautiful, highly walkable Oak Bay location close to the Village, parks, schools, shops, amenities and waterfront.
