A rare find at Ophir Place — beautifully renovated two-bed, two-bath condo with a sunny balcony and sun room. The sleek renovated kitchen includes cork floors, stainless appliances, and newer tile work. The bathrooms have been updated with floating cabinetry, heated tile in the ensuite and a full glass walk in shower with a built in seat. Shoji screens lead to a graceful sunroom off the primary suite while a rare private patio deck completes the picture. Well-run and vibrant 55+ strata with very friendly community, guest suite, workshop, billiards room, event room, and library. Bike and separate storage are both included. Dogs of all sizes and cats are welcome too. One of the very few homes permitted to have hard surface flooring. Strata feels will be significantly reduced due to cable, internet and basic phone no longer being wrapped in.

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.
