Don't be fooled by the address! Built in the 1920s, 5-235 Island Highway is a true character home - the kind with coved ceilings overhead & hardwood underfoot. Today, it sits tucked beneath a canopy of Garry Oaks with modern conveniences such as a new heat pump and furnace, new HWT and updated appliances. Inside, an updated kitchen brings ease while a banquet seating / breakfast nook with storage welcomes the family. The original dining room is versatile and currently serves as a bright home office. The updated main bathroom is meticulously designed. Climb to the top, and you'll find the primary bedroom oasis, a private retreat in the attic, complete with a spa-like ensuite and a walk-in closet. Three balcony areas provide ample space to bathe in the sun, while the irrigated yard is adorn by Garry Oak meadows. Two further bedrooms and a powder room round out the floor plan. Storage is tucked into every sensible seam, right down to a crawl space. Two assigned parking stalls!
