    “The home was sparkling clean and well appointed. The kitchen is well equiped and we prepared several fmily meals. There was a beautiflly decorated Christmas tree set up that we enjoyed. There was a small glitch with the check in, but quickly...”

This updated UPPER character 5 bedroom 2875 sq. ft. home is both private and quiet. The home offers vaulted ceilings in the master bedroom and ensuite, a walk in closet and a space for an extra queen sized air mattress if required on the upper loft. This home was completely updated from floor to ceiling. Both the Master bedroom and the second guest bedroom offer walk in closets to stow away one's luggage and all that one can pack in it The luxurious bathrooms has an abundance of linen and towels, separate laundry and loads of led lighting. One can either enjoy the soaker tub for relaxing or for the shower lovers, a beautiful rain shower awaits you. The home has been both a pet and smoke free home. PLEASE NOTE: There is also a Separate Lower 2 bedroom, 1 bath home with 9 ft. ceilings below, should additional accommodation needs be required for any group(s) greater than 12. This would allow a family or group of up to 18 people in total, to secure both separate homes offering 4400 sq. ft. living space. The unit is not a suite, rather a separate home, with separate access and services. There is no doors or connection from the lower unit to the upper home and vice versa. https://abnb.me/r9lFh2ZAYCb

The best of what Victoria's character home charm and modern west coast living style has to offer. Centrally located between downtown, ferries, and YYJ airport yet tucked away in the blissfully quiet neighbourhood of Swan Lake with stunning views! With a nature reserve across the street, there is no shortage of beautiful wildlife including humming birds, deer, and bunnies; leaving one feeling at home in a true nature sanctuary.
