I have sold a property at 686 Monterey Ave.

Oak Bay 4 Bedroom Charmer. This lovely little home has had extensive updates over the years and has recently been buffed and cleaned - it's ready to go! It has been in the same family for years but the owner has decided its time to pass the keys on to someone new. It's cozy, no doubt, but has 2 rooms up, 2 rooms down and a family room as well - lots of space to spread out. It has a very private west facing back yard - perfect for the kids and a pet or two. It has a great central location in Oak Bay which means its close to everything - the ocean, schools, parks and shopping. Recent improvements include the roof, windows, gas furnace and fireplace, painting and washer and dryer.

I have sold a property at 2159 Guernsey ST in VICTORIA.

See details here

Only blocks from the ocean, this 1 bedroom, one bathroom (easily converted back to 2 bed) home needs some love and attention and is nestled on one of Oak Bay's most tranquil streets. Excellent walking and plentiful parks are all at your door! This 1929 home has retained its original character: coved doorway, multi-paned windows, high molded baseboards, cove trim, and fir and oak inlaid floors. In the living room (where the gas fireplace is the focal point), there is a built in bookcase on one side and delightful vintage light sconces above the mantle. The natural ambient light that this property receives is part of it's allure. There are some mature trees in the neighboring yards which help to dapple the light and provide privacy. The large south facing back deck provides full exposure, if that is what you desire. The undeveloped downstairs allows for another bedroom and lots of opportunity for hobbies. The garage is spacious Recent upgrades: Roof & Hot Water on demand system.

Open Sunday 1-3:00. Beautiful and grand South Oak Bay character home. Retaining much of its original character in the Entry, Living and dining rooms with fir floors, fir casings, wainscotting, and boxed beams. The kitchen and family rooms have been tastefully renovated with gas cooking, stainless appliances, tile backsplash, and the perfect layout with access to the private rear deck and yard. There are 4 bedrooms in total, 2 bathrooms, den, and a full unfinished basement. Some bonus features include: remodeled main floor bathroom (with repurposed vanity), gas furnace, 4 year roof, rebuilt front stairs, recently stained exterior, and a funky rear storage building that could be a studio??? You will love the location walking distance to schools, waterfront, parks, and Oak Bay Avenue. This home is a must see for families, and executive buyers who want to live in arguably one of the best areas of Greater Victoria. A pleasure to view.
