South Oak Bay · Single Family Residence · MLS® 1023702 · Listed Jan 20, 2026
A/O Location truly matters, and this South Oak Bay address delivers. Set on a 7,200 sq ft lot with mature gardens, this 1936 family home has been lovingly cared for by the same family for decades. A thoughtful renovation added two bedrooms on the upper level, creating a flexible four-bedroom layout. The main floor features a spacious living room with its original wood-burning fireplace and inlaid oak and fir flooring that continues into the formal dining room. A central kitchen anchors the home, with two generous bedrooms and a full bathroom also on this level. Upstairs you’ll find two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom. The lower level offers a large rec room, storage, and walk-out access to the east-facing backyard. With its solid character, classic details, and prime location near the Victoria Golf Club, Oak Bay Marina, and Oak Bay Beach Hotel, this is a rare opportunity to make a South Oak Bay property your own.
