Welcome to Ashton House. Built in 1898 this heritage home was designed by famed English architect, Francis Rattenbury, for Sir Lyman Duff, a future Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. A major renovation in 2019 has resulted in a seamless blend of old-world charm, contemporary luxury, and modern conveniences. It features 7 fireplaces, antique Egyptian chandeliers, coffered ceilings, intricate moldings, four generous bedrooms and four bathrooms. The third floor is a self-contained bedroom, bathroom, living room combination ideal for guests, in-laws, or children. Step outside the sophisticated primary and onto a grand balcony overlooking the stunning backyard.This wide fronted home is extremely bright and perfectly private with a highly functional floor plan in the heart of the city, steps away from the vibrant shops of Oak Bay. The impeccably landscaped grounds showcase a 52-foot lap pool and poured in place hot tub, and a rose-trellis pergola.With its timeless beauty, impeccable craftsmanship and prime location, this is a rare opportunity to own a heritage home that is a true testament to the enduring allure of Victoria’s architectural heritage. This is truly a work of art that must be seen to be believed.
