Incredible Value An exceptional WATERFRONT opportunity in the heart of View Royal has hit the market. This expansive 14,850 sq ft, southeast-facing property is quietly tucked along Limekiln Cove, offering breathtaking ocean views toward the Olympic Mountains and Fisgard Lighthouse. Zoned to allow up to four units under SSMUH guidelines, the lot presents outstanding flexibility, whether for a striking custom waterfront residence or a thoughtfully designed multi-unit project. Enjoy the rare potential for a private dock, morning paddle launches, and sunrise views over calm coastal waters. Recent site remediation has already been completed, saving valuable time and expense. Set on a peaceful, tree-lined street just minutes from downtown Victoria, Vic General Hospital, schools, Eagle Creek Village, and the Galloping Goose Trail. A truly rare blend of location, views, and development potential in one of Greater Victoria’s most coveted seaside pockets.
