Nature Lover’s Paradise – Serene Home on 3 Acres of Untouched Forest. Discover your own slice of paradise on nearly 3 acres of pristine, natural forest, where arbutus trees create peaceful groves and the sounds of wildlife greet you daily. This property is ideal for birdwatchers, nature lovers, and those seeking tranquility. At the heart of the property lies a stunning natural pond, enhanced with Oriental touches, reflecting the changing seasons in breathtaking beauty. The forest is alive with the presence of deer, squirrels, owls, and an abundance of mushrooms and ferns, making every moment feel like a scene from a nature documentary. The west-facing home is thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in, with large windows and a spacious deck that provide uninterrupted views of the surrounding wilderness. Whether you’re watching wildlife or enjoying the vibrant colours of autumn, it’s as if nature itself becomes your entertainment. The lovingly maintained home offers easy-care living with 2 bedrooms upstairs, a generous kitchen with a cozy eating nook overlooking the pond, and an expansive living/dining area that opens to the large deck – perfect for entertaining or simply unwinding. Downstairs, you’ll find an additional bedroom, bathroom, family room, and workshop, with the potential to restore the space to a suite for guests or extended family. This property is a must-see for anyone looking to embrace nature in its purest form, while enjoying the comfort of a warm, welcoming home.

About

I bring a wealth of knowledge about what it means to live in our beautiful city. I attended Victoria High School and went on to a career in the Hospitality Industry. During this time, I maintained an active role in construction, inspired by my late grandfather's extensive career as a general contractor. After 16 years, I decided to give my full attention to construction and started a renovation company. My focus was to cover all aspects of updating a home. The company was very successful and built a solid clientele, which included clients preparing their homes for sale.

These experiences fueled my interest in the Real Estate Market and led to my journey as a REALTOR®. I joined Pemberton Holmes Ltd., Victoria's oldest real estate company, established in 1887. With more than 260 REALTORS® and a managing broker who is also a lawyer, it offers me a great base of knowledge to draw upon. This dedicated organization supports me in helping our clients pursue their dreams.

I met James when he and his partner came over from Vancouver to find a home in Victoria. We quickly developed a friendship and have collaborated many times since James acquired his Real Estate license.

Each of us brings a unique set of skills and perspectives from our extensive work in hospitality and education respectively, resulting in a strong understanding of, and commitment to, client-centred service.

We are excited to enter this new phase of our careers together, as business partners, to help our clients buy and sell their homes or properties in Greater Victoria and its surrounding communities.
