Welcome to a thoughtfully designed sanctuary where comfort meets productivity. Located in the heart of the University Heights neighborhood, this bright 2-bedroom walk-out suite is perfectly positioned for those seeking a quiet retreat without sacrificing accessibility.
The Space
Step through your private entrance into an open-concept living area featuring plush, theater-style seating—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring or professional commitments. The interior aesthetic is minimalist and polished, anchored by a unique designer kitchen. Equipped with a vibrant red fridge, a two-burner cooktop, and a countertop oven, it provides everything needed for effortless, modern living.

✅ Primary Suite: Features a comfortable queen-size bedwith views of the surrounding greenery.
✅ Second Bedroom: Offers a cozy twin bed and a dedicated workspace, ideal for a guest or a secondary home office.
✅ Bathroom: A spa-like experience with a spacious, modern walk-in shower.
Location and Lifestyle
Outdoor enthusiasts and commuters will love the location. You are just a 5-minute stroll from major bus routes (including the #26 to UVic) and seconds away from the Galloping Goose trail system for world-class cycling and walking.
✅ 10 Minutes: To the University of Victoria.
✅ Nearby: Fresh local produce at The Root Cellar and convenient shopping at Saanich Centre.
✅ Parking: Two complimentary parking spaces are included for your convenience.
