Designed in 1911 by the famous B.C. architect Samuel Maclure, this heritage home blends architectural pedigree with modern livability.

Hidden down a long driveway and well away from the bustle—yet just a 10-minute walk to Oak Bay Village—it offers the feel of a secluded country house in the heart of the city. Set on over half an acre of mature gardens, the nearly 7,000 sq ft residence sits on a granite outcropping and foundation, in keeping with Maclure’s philosophy that a home should rise from the land.

Elegant and spacious, it retains original leaded glass windows, original rewired light fittings, stained glass windows, and a cedar exterior – the wood is believed to have been milled from the original estate. A renovation 25 or 30 years after construction added two sunrooms and a south-facing deck. Features include a reimagined kitchen, new electrical, recent cedar roof, hot tub, yoga/art loft, and an income-generating suite. A rare opportunity for those who appreciate workmanship and elegance.
