There’s a reason homes like this are held onto for decades. Lovingly cared for by the same family for over 30 years, this South Oak Bay home has been the backdrop to a lifetime of everyday moments, celebrations, and memories, and now it’s ready for its next chapter! Full of warmth and original character, it welcomes you with a generous entry, charming arched doorway, beautiful oak floors, large windows, and a cozy gas fireplace. The main level offers an updated kitchen, separate dining room, two bedrooms, and a spacious five-piece bathroom, with an easy flow that simply works. Out back, the large, private, fully fenced south/west-facing yard is made for long summer evenings, kids and pets, gardening, entertaining, and everything in between. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms with generous closets, a three-piece bathroom, and rec/media room offer fantastic flexibility and exciting potential. Thoughtful updates include a 2019 gas furnace and tankless hot water, newer flooring and paint downstairs, and a brand new dishwasher, while a single garage, additional rear parking, and exceptional storage make everyday life easy. Walk to Willows Beach, wander over to Estevan Village for coffee or dinner, spend afternoons at nearby parks, and enjoy excellent schools and all the ease of life in one of Victoria’s most cherished neighbourhoods. This is a home with character, space, a beautiful backyard, and room to make it your own. The future here is bright, and the next chapter is yours.
