Nature Lover’s Paradise – Serene Home on 3 Acres of Untouched Forest. Discover your own slice of paradise on nearly 3 acres of pristine, natural forest, where arbutus trees create peaceful groves and the sounds of wildlife greet you daily. This property is ideal for birdwatchers, nature lovers, and those seeking tranquility. At the heart of the property lies a stunning natural pond, enhanced with Oriental touches, reflecting the changing seasons in breathtaking beauty. The forest is alive with the presence of deer, squirrels, owls, and an abundance of mushrooms and ferns, making every moment feel like a scene from a nature documentary. The west-facing home is thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in, with large windows and a spacious deck that provide uninterrupted views of the surrounding wilderness. Whether you’re watching wildlife or enjoying the vibrant colours of autumn, it’s as if nature itself becomes your entertainment. The lovingly maintained home offers easy-care living with 2 bedrooms upstairs, a generous kitchen with a cozy eating nook overlooking the pond, and an expansive living/dining area that opens to the large deck – perfect for entertaining or simply unwinding. Downstairs, you’ll find an additional bedroom, bathroom, family room, and workshop, with the potential to restore the space to a suite for guests or extended family. This property is a must-see for anyone looking to embrace nature in its purest form, while enjoying the comfort of a warm, welcoming home.

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”.
