The 1,400+ sq/ft, 2 bed/2 bath authorized Garden House was added in 2009, while the approximately 700 sq/ft, 2 bed/1 bath in-law suite was completed in 2023. Enjoy expansive decks, mature gardens, spectacular Magnolia, abundance of privacy and a massive driveway ideal for vehicles, boats and RVs. The detached 2 car garage/workshop offers excellent storage and flexibility, while the substantial forested backyard may offer future potential for a large secondary dwelling (buyer to verify). All this, just minutes from UVic, schools, transit routes, Arbutus Cove and the beach. An exceptional opportunity to secure a lifestyle property with multiple income streams, flexibility and significant future potential. (id:67468)
