Garden Retreat. Located in sought-after Garden Gate Estates, this immaculate home, custom built by Roger Garside, offers a private & peaceful sanctuary surrounded by 2 acres of natural-state forest and lush easy-care gardens.

The main floor has an open plan layout, featuring a light-filled living room with ceiling soaring to 26 ft, high-quality fir-framed picture windows & a natural gas two-way fireplace with artisanal river rock surround. Adjoining family room is a comfortable retreat for reading a book or watching TV & french doors access the office. Wide plank oak hardwood floors run throughout the main floor, with fir accents adding a west coast feel. The generous kitchen features granite counters, stainless steel appliances & a large island for easy entertaining. The adjacent dining room has french doors opening onto a covered deck & patio area with magical woodland outlook beyond. There is a spacious laundry to complete the main floor.

Upstairs, the roomy primary suite boasts vaulted ceilings, a private forest-view deck and a newly renovated spa-like ensuite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms and a guest bathroom on the upper level make for an ideal family layout. A lower level is undeveloped and offers room to expand with a separate entrance.
Enjoy flexibility for guests and extended family or capitalize on additional income potential offered by the 1-bedroom legal suite with separate parking and access, located above the 3-car garage. In the backyard, options are limitless, with your own fenced field tucked away beyond the trees, ideal for growing veggies or raising animals (farm tax status).

Wander the trail down to Tod Inlet or walk up to Oak Haven Park for glimpses of the Butchart Garden fireworks. The quaint town of Brentwood Bay is a short drive away & offers all the essentials, with fine dining at Cafe Zanzibar or the Brentwood Lodge. Just a 15 minute drive from the airport and ferries & 25 minutes to Victoria. Your private 2-acre retreat awaits!
