Beyond its understated street presence lies an extraordinary home that must be experienced to be fully appreciated. Completely rebuilt to the studs in 2020, this one-of-a-kind residence has been masterfully redesigned with soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and an exceptionally efficient floor plan that blends style with everyday comfort. The welcoming living room, anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, flows seamlessly into the dining area and den, with French doors opening to a private west-facing patio—an ideal setting for relaxing or entertaining. The primary bedroom offers a luxurious ensuite, while the second bedroom provides the flexibility to serve as a guest room, home office, or studio. Thoughtfully designed throughout, the home features expansive windows, a heat pump for year-round comfort, and quality finishes at every turn. A detached outbuilding in the large private yard provides the perfect space for a home office, creative workspace, or additional storage. Just steps from the waterfront and the vibrant shops and cafés of Cook Street Village, this exceptional property with extensive gardens offers the convenience of a low-maintenance lifestyle without strata fees or restrictions. A rare opportunity for those seeking a beautifully crafted home with a smaller footprint in one of the city's most desirable neighbourhoods.

About

After growing up in Dundee, Scotland my first career was in healthcare which took me to locations such as London, England, Sydney, Australia and finally Riyadh, Saudi Arabia where I managed a large, multicultural pathology laboratory for over 10 years.  In 1996, after visiting BC a number of times, I decided that I needed a change in both career and residence and settled in Victoria.  Now having been a Realtor for over 19 years, I have found that my skill set is ideally suited to real estate, particularly in terms of patience, flexibility and trust, providing me with the ability to communicate and empathize with people at all levels. I really enjoy working with people and one of the most rewarding aspects of real estate is helping my clients achieve their dream of finding the perfect home. I am committed to providing them with the absolute best in service and what I strive to do is make the process of buying or selling a home as simple, smooth and as trouble-free as possible.

When I'm not working one of my greatest passions is gardening and am continually working on creating a natural haven around my home. I also love nature and can think of nothing better than exploring the wonderful BC countryside with my lovely dog, Connor.

Cheers!
