Set in a tranquil forest and surrounded by glorious flowering gardens, this unique, architect-designed and occupied character home as featured in Seaside Magazine challenges our ideas about living with and within nature. Located in a heart of a 25 acre wilderness, this post-and-beam structure on three levels is a rugged but architecturally refined expression of West Coast living rendered in an ‘industrial aesthetic’ through heated concrete floors, steel and rough-sawn wood stairs and exposed structure. Its most important feature, however, is how this design brings the forest into the home via nearly un-interrupted walls of windows, skylights and decks on every floor. From the generous entrance-way through each living space including the gourmet kitchen, two living rooms, sauna and a spa-inspired master suite to the completely open and interconnected spaces - the home feels larger that its actual size and offers a completely unique character. For the discerning homeowner who values design, environmental integration, subtle forest moods, outdoor life and a place that is truly special.

About

Chris Gill*

Co-Owner

Born and raised in Victoria, BC, Chris knows all of this city’s neighbourhoods, homes, condo buildings, and projects. He uses his expertise every day in his work, and Realtors from all over Victoria come to Chris to pick his brain on strata-related questions. However, he is just as experienced in the single-family market, using his 10+ years of experience to his advantage. He is a multiple MLS Gold Award winner and has also received the prestigious MLS Special Gold Award. 

Chris attended Northwood University in Dallas, TX on a golf scholarship and then​ the University of Victoria. With his wife Francesca, he is the proud father of two boys, Abel and Everett. Outside of The Condo Group, Chris loves golfing, especially with Abel, skiing, travelling, playing hockey, and spending time with his family. He has been in attendance at a "perfect" baseball game with the Seattle Mariners, and in 2016, he attended the iconic Indianapolis 500. 

In the community, Chris is a part-owner of the popular local restaurant The Village Torquay and was invested in a local organics business. He also supports 100 Realtors Who Care and The Mustard Seed.
