About this home
Prepare to have your heartstrings pulled. This classic Tudor Revival is as spacious as it as beautiful with over 4,100 square feet of living space sprawled over 3 levels. The 1934 home has been masterfully transformed and updated but still retains character craftsmanship like wood floors with inlay design. Bathed in natural light from a canopy of skylights, the heart of the home is an impressive open-concept chef's kitchen featuring vaulted ceilings, marble countertops, premium appliances, a secondary prep area and a large island, perfect for those who love to host and entertain. The French doors open onto a west-facing deck overlooking the beautifully landscaped quarter-acre property, with a lush English style garden and ever-changing view of seasonal blooms. Designed with longevity in mind, the main-level primary wing offers a peaceful retreat complete with an ensuite bathroom, sitting area, ideal as a dressing-room-style closet, and convenient washer/dryer hook-ups in the closet. Upstairs you'll find a loft TV area and generous size bedrooms with large walk-in closets that kids will love to play in. The loft and full bathroom on the upper level provide exceptional space and separation, ideal for older children or out-of-town guests. The lower level offers two more bedrooms, a media room and a gym. Meticulously maintained and updated over the years with a focus on energy efficiency and ensuring quality including Smart-home technology, upgraded plumbing and electrical, perimeter drains, extra insulation, high-efficiency gas furnace and on-demand hot water. Enjoy a rare separate double-car garage with EV charger. Located just blocks from beaches, parks, the Oak Bay Marina, and some of Victoria's top schools. This is the type of home where families gather, traditions are created, and memories are made for generations to come. Because some homes are meant for a season, and some are meant for a lifetime.
