New property listed in Vi Downtown, Victoria

I have listed a new property at 303 1121 Fort ST in VICTORIA.

This is a terrific condo - a perfect location, just far enough from the downtown core but walkable to everything. Its modern and sleek with 10 foot ceilings and even a little balcony to watch the world walk by. It packs a punch at only 429 square feet but feels roomy and bright. The Zen building boasts a great roof top deck with enjoyable views around the city. The strata has unique CA-2 zoning which allows for live/work environment. Lots of funky coffee shops and restaurants close at hand - it scores 100 as a biker's paradise, 72 for transit and an impressive 89 walk score. And dont forget the all-important in suite laundry! Rentals allowed. Dont delay.

Only blocks from the ocean, this 1 bedroom, one bathroom (easily converted back to 2 bed) home needs some love and attention and is nestled on one of Oak Bay's most tranquil streets. Excellent walking and plentiful parks are all at your door!

In the living room (where the gas fireplace is the focal point), there is a built in bookcase on one side and delightful vintage light sconces above the mantle. The natural ambient light that this property receives is part of it's allure. There are some mature trees in the neighboring yards which help to dapple the light and provide privacy. The large south facing back deck provides full exposure, if that is what you desire. The undeveloped downstairs allows for another bedroom and lots of opportunity for hobbies. The garage is spacious Recent upgrades: Roof & Hot Water on demand system.
