Gordon Head is a well-established ocean-side neighbourhood in East Saanich just north of Victoria BC. This largely residential suburban neighbourhood is tucked up against gorgeous Mt. Doug Park and sits just south of Cordova Bay Beach, both of which offer great outdoor recreational opportunities. The University of Victoria can be found on the southern boundaries of Gordon Head as well as a number of elementary and secondary schools. UVic is also known for being home to Mystic Vale, a beautiful ravine park that stretches almost from Henderson Road to Cadboro Bay. As well as the beautiful Gordon Head Lookout Point with lovely oceanside views.
Truly a unique offering!Well below assessed value! Down a private lane on Ferndale Road you will find this private, park-like retreat with over half an acre of nature & not a neighbour in sight! It's hard to believe you are right in the heart of Gordon Head, in close proximity to the best schools, beaches and transit! The 3 BR, 2 bath home was built in the early 50's with a family room addition in the 80's. Much of the charm of the day remains intact including hardwood floors, coved ceilings & a wood burning fireplace. The living room is the heart of the home with lots of space & large windows that bring in the natural light. There is a bright office area, kitchen, 4 peice bathroom & all 3 bedrooms are on the main level. The master bedroom has an ensuite bath. The family room is at the back of the house and opens to the south facing yard, full of mature shrubs & trees. The basement is largely unfinished & ready for your ideas. Suite & garden suite potential! Call your Realtor to view!
