Welcome to 535 Island Road-one of the most private and revered garden estates in all of South Oak Bay. Lovingly owned and tended by the late Lord and Lady Chatfield, this 0.49 acre property personifies the true meaning of a legendary garden with historical significance. Sweeping lawns are embraced by a magnificent variety of mature trees and extraordinary gardens cultivated over generations of thought and care, positioned in a most private and sought after neighbourhood near to the ocean and the world famous Victoria Golf Course. Set amongst the gardens is an honest, handsome 1931 character residence that awaits thoughtful rejuvenation. The spectacular setting has quietly intrigued many and hosted a number of prominent gatherings over the years. Opportunities to extend the provenance of such a renowned estate are so few and far between as to only exist once in a lifetime.

About

With over 20 years in client service, negotiations and contract management, I understand the importance of building solid relationships for successful outcomes.  I have lived and owned homes in Victoria for 25 years and raised my family here. The communities around Greater Victoria are each unique and all have something special to offer.  I travel regularly "up-island" and am familiar with some of those communities as well.

I'm as comfortable helping new home buyers as I am helping seniors transition to smaller homes. And I'm equally comfortable in the luxury home market - whether it's oceanfront or lakefront - downtown penthouses - acreages or wineries. 

I'm a member at the Royal Victoria Yacht Club, and served on it's Executive in 2013-2014. I also dedicate spare time to my community as President of the Oak Bay Sea Rescue Society - a non-profit, all-volunteer Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue station (RCMSAR - Station 33) based out of Oak Bay Marina. Past affiliations are with Oaklands Community Association and the Victoria Youth Empowerment Society. 

Whether you're local to Victoria and the Islands or searching from abroad, I invite you to browse my website and call or email me with any questions you have.  I look forward to helping you with your home ownership needs.
