Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
I have been brewing beer professionally for over ten years at various locations in Victoria, and my partner is one of Victoria's most notable realtors.
We are drawn to the carefree lifestyle that downtown condo living offers and we live a ten minute walk away from our vacation rental - which we adored living in for 7 years.
Why the Owner Chose Victoria
I migrated to the West Coast from Ontario, many years ago, and I am continually amazed by how fantastic it is to live here. After living in Vancouver and Whistler, I decided Victoria was the best match for me and made it my home.
The unlimited outdoor activities like kayaking, hiking, camping, mountain biking, mushroom picking, wildlife watching, and sailing are what I enjoy most. Our beautiful harbour, framed by the Olympic mountains is so stunning, that being able to enjoy it every single day, makes me feel incredibly fortunate.
The Unique Benefits of this Condo
When you are at Mermaid Wharf, your options are plentiful. With Chinatown just steps away, you have access to all the markets a gourmet chef could want. All of the city's brewpubs are within walking distance, as are many of the city's scenic gems: walkways along the inner harbour, the bustling causeway, the museum, and of course all of the diverse restaurants and shops downtown has to offer.
