New property listed in Vi Fairfield West, Victoria

I have listed a new property at 402 420 Linden Ave in Victoria.

This 50+ STEEL AND CONCRETE building is one of Fairfield's treasures! With a Walk Score of 88, the location is close to the Dallas Road waterfront, easy access to Cook St shopping community, Beacon Hill Park and even downtown Victoria. If that doesn't convince you, then read on! This strata is renowned for its helpful community spirit, secure underground parking, huge storage unit, updated fitness room and well maintained grounds. Even better is its hefty contingency reserve! This 2 bedroom 2 bathroom home on the fourth floor is 1259 sq. ft. and has two sunrooms and a fireplace (ready for an electric insert) and insuite laundry. There is so much potential in this QUIET AND SUNNY unit (other renovations have opened up the kitchen to the living room with approval) you will have no trouble making it your forever home - just bring your ideas! The enclosed balconies (1 off the primary bedroom and 1 off the living room) are bonus spaces that can be enjoyed summer or winter. Easy to view!

This wonderful family home is a charmer with an old-time vibe - picture perfect setting on a tree-lined street in the heart of Royal Oak. Originally a 1920s farm house, it has been updated with modern conveniences, yet retains its country feel. An inviting, open floor plan and a wraparound covered porch which looks down onto the beautifully landscaped yard full of perennials and blossoming fruit trees. French doors welcome you into the main living space - the living and dining room with timeless fir floors anchored by a cozy gas fireplace. This flows directly into the large country kitchen - plenty of space for all your culinary desires. The main floor is completed with the large primary bedroom, a 4 piece full bathroom, a laundry/mud room (with direct access to the carport), & a flex room (easily converted to a 4th bedroom!). Upstairs is home to two cozy bedrooms and a shared 2 piece bathroom. Close to all amenities - schools, parks & shopping. A perfect family home not to be missed!
