Through the portal of custom gates one emerges into a private, immersive sanctuary-an idyllic Saltspring Island legacy estate. Almost 4 acres of gently sloping gardens and artistically wrought landscape, opens to a west facing walk on sandy ocean beach. This rare waterfront acreage has it all: the architecturally designed west coast style main house is a Seventies creation with an MCM vibe; stunning two bedroom Guest House and distinct workshop garage/barn both built in 2006; caretaker's custom RV port; enclosed feature vegetable garden; abundant and great tasting water system with separate supply for irrigation. The main home is one level with a sustainable footprint. Plumbing, electrical and septic services are upgraded to facilitate an expansion or re-imagining of the main dwelling. Piped propane for gas appliances. There is a heritage orchard of 9 apple trees planted in the 60's plus two cherry and a pear tree. A venerable Concord grape vine is a generous producer of fruit. Launch a dinghy on the beach to access your boat tied off a professionally installed buoy. Revel in endless sunsets & Nature's tableau from the broad brick patio.

About

A thirty-year resident of Victoria, I began my journey of becoming a sales professional cutting my teeth in the competitive office supply sales market and finishing with a successful twenty-year award winning tenure in health care sales. Also, for an eight-year period my entrepreneurial side emerged when I developed, operated and eventually sold my own business “Dine In Victoria”.  Along the way I have creatively renovated three homes and helped design and construct two others. 

A husband and father of two adult boys, I have always been an active member in the community, serving with the Victoria Chamber of Commerce, the Canadian Diabetes Association, coaching youth sports with Victoria Night League Basketball, Saanich Fusion FC, Saanich Minor Lacrosse and with the Five-time Provincial High School Football Champions: Mount Douglas Rams. Personally, I enjoy a good round of golf but not the awful handicap.

 If you are looking to sell or buy a property in Victoria, and looking for a REALTOR®, I would look forward to meeting with you to discuss my marketing plans and buying strategies which would be tailored for your specific needs. After thirty years residing in Greater Victoria, I can provide valuable information on particular neighbourhoods, upcoming areas and locations that would best suit your lifestyle. 

                       Your passions are my utmost concerns - nothing short of the “Gold Standard”.
