Hidden Oasis in Old Esquimalt! From the street, this property appears to be a charming 1930's character bungalow, but follow the driveway and discover your own private hidden haven. Tucked away on a beautifully landscaped lot are THREE SEPARATE DWELLINGS, creating the perfect setup for multigenerational living, extended family, guests, or rental income. The front bungalow offers timeless character (with 2 bdrms on the main floor plus a lower level with 2 additional bdrms, living room, bathroom and separate side entry), while the stunning West Coast contemporary home at the rear features soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. A detached garden suite completes this rare family compound. With private outdoor spaces, including an outdoor shower, and lush surroundings, you'll feel worlds away while still being just minutes from downtown Victoria, schools, shopping, and restaurants. A truly unique property that must be experienced to be appreciated.
