The inspirational design of this South Oak Bay family home is only surpassed by its breathtaking vistas. 285 King George Terrace’s understated street presence belies what waits within – a modern and bright masterpiece. The gorgeous floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Olympic mountain range and Trial Islands to the south of Vancouver Island. This architect inspired home boasts both a grand entertainment space but also suits comfortable family living. You will be pleased that the 5700 sf home has all your living needs on the main level: an ultra- contemporary kitchen will spark your inner gourmand; a media room and library will supply endless entertainment and a personal gym/ flex room could be your room of self discovery. The grand master bedroom has a spacious walk-in closet, a five-piece ensuite and its own east- facing balcony looking over McNeill Bay. The 2nd upstairs bedroom, also with full ensuite has the laundry room close by. Both bedrooms are found just off the main hallway with its high ceilings and generous skylights. Be prepared for a treat - when the light casts itself inwards at midday, a surprise of poetic wonder awaits. The remaining two downstairs bedrooms are amply sized & come with their own ensuites which can accommodate diverse living configurations. The lower level has a separate private entrance which could allow families and helpers to enjoy their own space - the possibilities are endless. Follow the sun as it arcs over the house, from the eastern sunrise to western sunsets. This wonderful home invites cozy books in front of the grand fireplace in winter; in the summer, open your patio doors and let the warm ocean breeze rejuvenate your senses. Completing this amazing home is the huge 3 car garage and low care yard. The location, close to excellent schools, shopping, health services & downtown Victoria is unsurpassed. Rest assured, you will not be afraid to walk, hike or cycle from your front door, knowing a soothing hot tub awaits your return

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”.
