Charming character home in one of Victoria's best neighbourhoods. Tucked into the heart of Gonzales on a quiet, tree-lined street, this beautifully updated home is a short stroll to Gonzales Beach, Oak Bay Village, and the cafés, shops, and restaurants of inner-city Victoria. Just steps from Glenlyon Norfolk School, making it an ideal location for families with young kids. Thoughtfully updated throughout, it delivers an amazing family residence with a newly added self-contained suite (vacant as of August 1), ideal for multigenerational living, a nanny suite, or a mortgage helper. With 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across three levels, there is room for growing families, guests, and work-from-home setups alike. The current owners fully developed the attic, adding a rec room and two bedrooms that open up the top floor as a true retreat — the upper loft level has 6' ceiling heights, giving it a cozy, tucked-away character well suited to children or a quiet hideaway. A rare laneway runs behind the property, with a detached 100 sq/ft "bunkie," perfect as a home office, studio, or flex space. Further owner improvements include the new suite with its own breaker panel and washer/dryer, a new washer/dryer in the main home, a new downstairs bathroom with heated floors, a kitchen refresh with new appliances and refinished hardwood, plus fresh interior and exterior paint. Please note the lower floor has 6'6" ceiling heights. The upstairs fireplace is plumbed for a natural gas insert. Outside, a new back fence, fresh sod, front landscaping, and a brick path wrap the home, with a chicken coop and five laying hens for daily fresh eggs. A true urban homestead!

About

Meet Lew Poulin


Lew has been selling residential real estate in Victoria for 30 years. In that time he has helped many happy clients to achieve their real estate dreams. For Lew, it has always been about more than selling real estate as a way to make a living, it is about helping people to get the best real estate deals for each individual. Lew loves to help people and he loves to sell.

"My earliest memory of selling started when I was 8 and I would try to sell our household items to my Aunts, Uncles & Grandparents when they would come over for family gatherings"

Born and raised in Victoria, Lew knows Victoria and all the individual areas that make up our real estate market. He consistently takes real estate upgrading courses so he is current with the market and knowledgeable on all areas of the residential market, this way he can best serve his clients.

Starting in sales after finishing school at Victoria High School in 1976, Lew spent the next 10 years in the retail sales industry working for Eaton's, Sears and The Bay. In 1984 he moved into the automotive industry and was a sales associate for Canada's #1 Toyota dealership, Metro Toyota, earning salesman of the year honors. Lew worked in the automotive sales field for 10 years. Lew became a Realtor in 1994 and has been in the real estate industry for the last 25 years.
