Charming character home in one of Victoria's best neighbourhoods. Tucked into the heart of Gonzales on a quiet, tree-lined street, this beautifully updated home is a short stroll to Gonzales Beach, Oak Bay Village, and the cafés, shops, and restaurants of inner-city Victoria. Just steps from Glenlyon Norfolk School, making it an ideal location for families with young kids. Thoughtfully updated throughout, it delivers an amazing family residence with a newly added self-contained suite (vacant as of August 1), ideal for multigenerational living, a nanny suite, or a mortgage helper. With 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across three levels, there is room for growing families, guests, and work-from-home setups alike. The current owners fully developed the attic, adding a rec room and two bedrooms that open up the top floor as a true retreat — the upper loft level has 6' ceiling heights, giving it a cozy, tucked-away character well suited to children or a quiet hideaway. A rare laneway runs behind the property, with a detached 100 sq/ft "bunkie," perfect as a home office, studio, or flex space. Further owner improvements include the new suite with its own breaker panel and washer/dryer, a new washer/dryer in the main home, a new downstairs bathroom with heated floors, a kitchen refresh with new appliances and refinished hardwood, plus fresh interior and exterior paint. Please note the lower floor has 6'6" ceiling heights. The upstairs fireplace is plumbed for a natural gas insert. Outside, a new back fence, fresh sod, front landscaping, and a brick path wrap the home, with a chicken coop and five laying hens for daily fresh eggs. A true urban homestead!
