Welcome to an exceptional 1936 residence that captures the timeless grace of South Oak Bay living. Masterfully renovated in 2015 by Mike Knight Construction, offering thoughtful updates that families appreciate. Set on a sun-drenched and private 11,610 sq ft lot, the garden here is truly special: an established oasis of mature trees, curated plantings, and vibrant blooms that would take decades to recreate. It's the kind of backyard you dream about: west-facing, tranquil, and soaked in golden light from morning until evening.
Inside, sunlight pours through windows on every side. Original details such as arched doorways, French doors, and wood floors pair beautifully with the home’s refined layout. The main level features a grand living room with a gas fireplace, an open-concept kitchen with a gas stove and stainless-steel appliances, and a family room that opens onto a west-facing deck for sunny afternoons and evening gatherings. A full bathroom and main floor bedroom offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or future accessibility.
Upstairs, three bedrooms include a generous primary suite with dual closets and a luxurious ensuite featuring a walk-in shower, freestanding tub, and views over the garden. The lower level, with 7-foot ceilings, exterior access, and a roughed-in kitchen, provides versatility for multi-generational living, guests, or recreation space.
Located on a quiet, tree-lined street a block from the ocean. Walk to top-ranked public and private schools, the Victoria Golf Club, Oak Bay Marina, charming cafés, and beaches. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a home that feels elegant, welcoming, and lasting. This rare property offers privacy, space, and a location that defines South Oak Bay living.
