Want to own the most unique home on the island? A gardener’s paradise surrounds this professionally engineered rock-faced solid concrete home with a living roof blending right into nature. Experience complete privacy on this maintenance free, deer fenced south-facing 10-acre property featuring a home that is modern and bright inside. Enjoy huge windows in almost every room, high-end appliances, granite countertops and an enormous walk-in pantry in a comfortable, light-filled space designed for efficiency. The kitchen features a built-in fridge and dishwasher, and a new propane cooktop. There are 3 bedrooms, with the master having new heated tile floors and ensuite bathroom with a large river rock shower and giant soaker tub. This home has high end cherry cabinetry in the kitchen and laundry room, where there is ample storage. The home’s natural thermal mass leads to minimal temperature fluctuations, making AC unnecessary in the summer. Outside is a gardener’s playland; fruit trees, flowers and berries, all on automatic irrigation. A roof top greenhouse and veggie garden supports year-round growing. Your food forest awaits! Unwind on the yellow cedar deck, cool off in the above-ground pool, or soak in the hot tub under the stars with an outdoor propane shower surrounded in vines just 2 steps away. At the end of a dead end country road there is nothing but peace, quiet and your own ocean view hilltop to see the sea in one direction or sunsets in the other. Escape the worries of the world with your ability to grow food, have your own fresh eggs from the chicken coop or be self sustaining. There is a generator to run the well if needed during power outages, and the home would be exceptionally easy to convert to solar to be off grid if desired. The well is a high yield bottomless 20 gpm well with 2 new pressure tanks. A rare opportunity to own a peaceful forest home with privacy, natural beauty, and ocean views from your own wild flower-covered hilltop lookout.

About

Andrew Hobbs*

Andrew is an exceptionally well-versed Realtor, having helped over 250 clients purchase and sell properties and real estate investments, including condos, townhomes, houses, duplexes, multi-plexes, commercial strata, and even one hobby farm! He has facilitated condo sales in almost every prominent building in downtown Victoria and the surrounding area. Andrew has been an MLS Award winner since 2009, and an MLS Gold and Silver Award winner from 2010 until present

Besides being a Realtor, Andrew is also a certified French teacher and chess guru. He taught high school English in Paris from 1997-1998 and then, after moving to Taiwan to study Mandarin in 1999, he opened and ran a chess school in Taiwan from 2003-2008. (It’s still open and running today!) 

Andrew and his wife Shu-Hui have two children, Jasmine and Joshua, and together, they enjoy camping, hiking, and cycling all over Vancouver Island. He still enjoys teaching languages, chess, and tennis, but most of his efforts are spent on teaching his kids, but he has taught (and will in the future) volunteer chess classes at Oaklands. 

Since 2009, the Hobbs family has sponsored a boy name Abel in Malawi through SOS Children’s Villages. Over the course of his time as a Realtor, Andrew has donated to BC Cancer Foundation and their Ride to Conquer Cancer, MS Society of Canada, Operation Smile, Canadian Mental Health Association (Ride, Don’t Hide), and Alberta Fires Relief.
