Description

A truly extraordinary residence in the heart of James Bay, this remarkable 1905 heritage masterpiece was designed by famed architect Samuel Maclure. This home offers 4,181 sq. ft. of versatile living space, configured as upper and lower Legal duplex residences plus a private attic suite, all with their separate entrances—an exceptionally rare opportunity for multi-generational living, extra source of owner income or savvy investors. Inside, you’ll discover five spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, generous living areas, and abundant storage. A full-height basement with a sauna presents exciting possibilities for future expansion or customization. Major upgrades—including two separate furnaces, updated electrical systems, and a complete roof replacement—provide peace of mind and a truly turn-key property. Nestled on a quiet street in one of Victoria’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, you’re just steps from beaches, parks, the Inner Harbour, and all the amenities of James Bay Village.
