OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS! Welcome to this stunning waterfront home in Esquimalt’s West Bay, nestled between Sailors Cove and Hidden Harbour Marinas with a scenic seaside walkway to downtown Victoria. Offering breathtaking views of the Inner Harbour, water taxis at your doorstep, and direct access to the ocean for kayaking, paddleboarding, or boating, this home features four bedrooms, six bathrooms, and legal Airbnb income as a mortgage helper. Previously approved township plans allow for a separate entrance to enhance guest privacy. Once a bed and breakfast, it retains an active tourist rental license with a 5-star Airbnb rating. The main floor boasts two bedrooms, a mudroom, laundry, and a spacious kitchen that flows into the dining and living areas, with access to a mature garden extending to the ocean. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms accompany a solarium with a vaulted ceiling, offering panoramic views and an outdoor patio. Each bedroom includes its own ensuite. The finished basement offers a full bathroom and walk-in closet, with the potential to add a kitchenette for extra rental income. In the garden, a custom-designed studio by local architect James Kerr serves as an ideal artist space or home office. Nearby, a Pennsylvania blue stone patio and wraparound bench provide a serene setting to enjoy the ocean views. The adjacent park enhances the property’s sense of space without the upkeep. Zoned for both residential and commercial use, this property is one of the few legitimate Airbnb rentals in Victoria and offers unique development potential up to 38.4 feet.

About

I pride myself on giving every client of mine the utmost personal service.  I truly enjoy helping people, in the end what matters most is your satisfaction. 

A little about myself:  In 2017 I moved to the Parksville/Qualicum area with my Wife and two young daughters all the way from Ontario where I first got my start in Real Estate at the young age of 22, investing in income properties, renovating, managing and growing a successful portfolio has given me extensive knowledge and experience in the Real Estate Industry.  Alongside Real Estate, I also owned and operated a successful business as an International Certified Arborist, I still love to climb trees!  I also spent many years in the Snowboard Industry, as professional rider and coach, and eventually designing, building and maintaining a world class terrain park well into my thirties.  Now that my riding days are mostly behind me (still sneak out to the mountains as much as possible daughters in tow) Im able to focus on my young family and Real Estate career.  Giving back to my local community is very important to me, Im a volunteer firefighter with Errington Volunteer Fire Department, being a First Responder is hard work at times but also very rewarding and Im honoured to be a part of this fantastic community.

Thanks for reading my Bio, buying and selling Real Estate can be and is stressful, I provide a chill and relaxed attitude paired with expert advice & industry knowledge and this helps from start to finish.
