Welcome to this charming, updated rancher in the sought after Mt. Tolmie neighbourhood in Gordon Head. The fully renovated kitchen with new cabinetry and appliances opens onto a spacious deck, perfect for entertaining or a quiet morning coffee. The large backyard is perfect for kids and pets to play and have fun. The living room retains its character with original oak hardwood, coved mouldings and a cozy fireplace. Two bedrooms plus a flexible office provide extra room for guests or a home workspace, and the refreshed 3-piece bath features a new vanity and cabinetry. Built in 1953 and well maintained, with forced-air gas heat, vinyl windows, newer perimeter drains and sewer connection. Attached garage for parking and storage. Set on a generous 6,000 sf lot within Saanich's SSMUH Transit Proximity Area (permits up to 6 units, buyer to verify with the District of Saanich), this is a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers or developers alike.
