Don't let the address fool you! Tucked back from Craigflower Road on a quiet shoulder with mature trees creating a natural buffer, this solid 1955 home offers privacy, exceptional parking, and endless potential on a rare 0.29-acre lot. Perfectly positioned across from Gorge Vale Golf Club and just steps to Esquimalt Gorge Park & Pavilion, the Japanese Gardens, waterfront trails, and the Gorge Waterway, this location is ideal for those who love the outdoors while still being close to everyday amenities. Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1,152 sq.ft. of finished living space plus an additional 579 sq.ft. of unfinished basement, offering plenty of storage and future possibilities. Lovingly maintained and largely original, the home is a true blank slate ready for your renovation ideas and personal style. Zoned RD-3 (Single Family/Two Family Residential), the property offers exciting future potential for homeowners and investors alike (buyers to verify development possibilities with the municipality). Two separate driveways provide ample parking for multiple vehicles, an RV, or recreational toys. Whether you're looking to renovate, invest, or build equity in one of Victoria's most convenient locations, this is an opportunity you won't want to miss.

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.
