Natural and Private Setting
Only 25 Minutes from Downtown.

This unique 1984 West Coast contemporary 3,000 + square foot home is set in one of the most beautiful valleys on the Saanich Peninsula. Nature abounds at every season on this peaceful and private acreage, protected from the road by a high cedar hedge and with unimpeded views down the valley to the south.
The 3.12 acre property includes lawns and flower gardens, mature trees and rhodos, an enclosed vegetable garden with substantial raised beds, blueberry bushes and eight fruit trees, a meadow and pond, and unspoiled forested area.
The property originally had farm status for tax purposes, which could be reinstated. Or use it for growing healthy fruit and vegetables for your family or to sell at your own road side stand.
There are many other stands located nearby and as well farmer’s markets, such as Dan’s Market, Sun Wing, Oldfield Orchards, Symphony Vineyard. Activities are available for everyone: great hiking is available at nearby Bear Hill Park and boating and swimming are available at Elk Lake, a short bicycle ride away. Or, board your horse at the neighbour’s riding facility, right next door.
The house features a spacious great room with vaulted ceiling, a gas fireplace for cozy winter evenings, and a formal dining area. This space has a number of tasteful built-in cabinets and book cases, a fir mantelpiece and beautiful bamboo flooring.
The sunroom off the great room is a wonderful space to curl up with a good book and has lovely views of the garden.
The ergonomic, country-style kitchen has ample counter space, cupboards and drawers, and appliances include the new gas cook top, fridge with bottom drawer freezer, dishwasher and microwave/hood fan combination.
There is a handy eating nook with windows on both sides to enjoy views of the meadow and forested area at the back of the property. The nook has a French door that leads to a large south-facing deck with a grape arbour for shade and ambiance, perfect for sharing a glass of wine or cup of coffee while you enjoy the views and listen to the bird song.
The rest of the downstairs features the original master bedroom that is now being used as a family room. It could be restored to a bedroom, giving options for owners to age in place. A closet runs the width of the room at one end and at the other there is a seated bay window area that is now used for TV viewing. The gas stove heats this space nicely. There is also a convenient three-piece bathroom next door with a large storage closet.
Upstairs, there is a second master bedroom with a two piece en-suite bath. In addition, there is the newly-renovated full bathroom with luxurious soaker tub. The laundry room is off this bathroom, with storage space in the adjacent attic.
There is also a good size third bedroom and a smaller two-level “tower” room that is now being used as a sewing room but has been used as a fourth bedroom in the past.
At the north end of the house is a two-car garage and also a second basic kitchen, currently used for canning and processing fruit and vegetables from the garden. Outside, across a breezeway and down some stairs, is a separate, truly lovely library/music room/guest studio, in a building which matches the architecture of the main house.
The construction of the house offers low maintenance and peace of mind with the metal roof and long lasting Hardi plank siding. There is a clean four-foot crawl space under the house which makes for easy access to plumbing and electrical systems, built-in vacuum system and the hot water on demand.
The property has two separate driveways to the home, with ample parking for cars, front or back, plus RV parking. There is a good size garden shed designed to match the home. Other features include municipal water for the house, well water for the garden, and a fenced yard.
The owners have maintained the home and property well and invested many thousands of dollars in thoughtful renos and upgrades. Come and see this natural paradise for yourself.
