Wonderful Gordon Head family home right across the street from a park and minutes from Mt. Doug. This 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home (2677 sq. ft.) is a coveted property, especially in this very lean market.

Enjoy the wood burning fireplace on stormy west coast nights and in the summer months the generous tiered back deck and yard (8,243 sq. ft. lot), are only steps from the kitchen. The downstairs recreational room would be wonderful for the kids to enjoy or it could easily be repurposed as a home office, workout space or suite. The garage is a generous size with a 7'3" ceiling which will allow for lots of extra storage. This bright and sunny home is close to Uvic and many excellent schools as well as shopping, green space and all amenities. Perfect for a family, multi-generational home or as an investment property.
