Character charm meets a private garden retreat at this 1914 home in Victoria’s central Hillside-Quadra neighbourhood. With a southwest-facing front, hardwood flooring, a new roof in 2026 and windows replaced approximately six years ago, this home blends period appeal with practical updates. A cozy living room with an electric fireplace welcomes you inside, alongside a main-floor bedroom and a kitchen/dining area with stainless steel appliances. The three-piece bathroom features a soaker tub with tile surround. Downstairs offers a second bedroom, wet bar area and laundry. Step outside to a covered rear deck, perfect for unwinding overlooking your private backyard oasis. Pear, plum, apple and fig trees mingle with kiwi and grape vines and rosemary, creating a rewarding space for garden lovers.
