Welcome to one of the most significant historical homes in the Alberni Valley! Set on a private & immaculate 4+ acre property, this one-of-a-kind Samuel Maclure Arts & Crafts home was commissioned by the original owners, the Hodgsons, in 1914 & has since had only 2 owners. Its integrity has been well maintained with tasteful updates including a gas furnace, added insulation, newer metal roof & exceptional care of the woodwork & workmanship throughout. The back porch looks onto the gardens & sloped greenery abutting Kitsuksis creek & trails, plus the rest of the yard is a mix of open area for outdoor entertainment, treed areas & space for a potential carriage home. The floor plan offers families endless options with 6 bedrooms, a lovely reading room with fireplace, close to 4000 sq ft of living space & the ability to finish basement space. Also zoned for B&B, supportive housing & more. Please see photos - too many amazing details to describe! Genuinely a must-see, to truly appreciate.

About

A thirty-year resident of Victoria, I began my journey of becoming a sales professional cutting my teeth in the competitive office supply sales market and finishing with a successful twenty-year award winning tenure in health care sales. Also, for an eight-year period my entrepreneurial side emerged when I developed, operated and eventually sold my own business “Dine In Victoria”.  Along the way I have creatively renovated three homes and helped design and construct two others. 

A husband and father of two adult boys, I have always been an active member in the community, serving with the Victoria Chamber of Commerce, the Canadian Diabetes Association, coaching youth sports with Victoria Night League Basketball, Saanich Fusion FC, Saanich Minor Lacrosse and with the Five-time Provincial High School Football Champions: Mount Douglas Rams. Personally, I enjoy a good round of golf but not the awful handicap.

 If you are looking to sell or buy a property in Victoria, and looking for a REALTOR®, I would look forward to meeting with you to discuss my marketing plans and buying strategies which would be tailored for your specific needs. After thirty years residing in Greater Victoria, I can provide valuable information on particular neighbourhoods, upcoming areas and locations that would best suit your lifestyle. 

                       Your passions are my utmost concerns - nothing short of the Gold Standard”.
