Description

Set in an idyllic neighbourhood bordering Fairfield and Oak Bay, this lovingly maintained 1912 Arts and Crafts residence offers exceptional character, space and versatility. Original fir floors, stained glass accents, built-in cabinetry and custom millwork reflect the home’s enduring craftsmanship, while fresh paint and new carpeting provide a refreshed foundation for future personalization. The main level features gracious living and dining rooms, a wood-burning fireplace, sunroom off the kitchen, 2 bedrooms and a den. Upstairs, a private retreat offers a bedroom, bathroom and cozy sitting area, while the lower level includes a spacious self-contained 2 BR suite. Outside, mature landscaping surrounds a serene fenced garden, with rare rear laneway access, RV parking and a workshop. Rich in period charm and lovingly cared for, this special home presents an exceptional opportunity to thoughtfully update while preserving its original character, close to Oak Bay Village, parks and schools.
