About this home
Top floor, set at the back of the building and framed by a leafy treed outlook, this is a home that offers something rare: genuine calm, with every convenience close at hand. Unit 408 sits on the uppermost level, with no one overhead and a view into the changing seasons. Almost 9 ft ceilings and generous windows keep the home bright and airy, and the balcony becomes a private retreat for morning coffee, a good book or a quiet glass of wine at the end of the day. The kitchen is designed with entertaining in mind, finished with quartz counters, a hex tile backsplash, under cabinet lighting, full height white cabinetry, stainless appliances and an eating bar that seats three. The bedroom shares the same treed outlook, the bathroom features a deep soaker tub with glass doors, and in-suite laundry with a heat pump dryer adds everyday ease. Beyond the photos, the details matter. Built in 2019, this 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom condo carries the balance of its new home warranty. Secure underground parking, a private storage locker and bike storage are included, along with a new resident activity room for small gatherings, puzzles and a shared book exchange. The building is pet friendly with no age or rental restrictions, offering real flexibility for a first time buyer, a downsizer seeking lock and leave living, or a discerning investor. The lifestyle completes the picture. Walk or cycle the E&N Rail Trail, take the dog to the nearby park, and meet friends at a local pub, with schools and transit close by. Weekends are made for swimming and hiking at Thetis Lake Regional Park, paddling Portage Inlet or exploring the Gorge Waterway. Victoria General Hospital and Eagle Creek Village shopping are minutes away, and the Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre, Colwood, Langford, the Westshore and downtown Victoria are an easy drive, with quick access to the Trans Canada Highway. Central View Royal living at its best, and a beautifully balanced place to come home to. (id:65179)
