Commissioned in the 1920s, this Samuel McClure-era home combines timeless architectural beauty with modern updates, while preserving its old-world charm. Situated on 4.75 acres, this waterfront estate offers breathtaking views of Squally Reach, Senanus Island, and Saanich Inlet. The property is private, gated, and peaceful, providing a perfect retreat surrounded by nature. The main home features superior craftsmanship and sweeping water views from every principal room. The gourmet kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, stone countertops, high-end appliances, a pantry, and an island with bar seating. The adjacent dining area is ideal for hosting, and the stylish living room, with its statement fireplace, leads to a covered deck. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, fireplace, and three-piece ensuite, with deck access. The main floor also offers a second bedroom, a study, a family room, mudroom, and two bathrooms. Upstairs, the second primary suite features a spa-like ensuite and walk-in closet, along with two more bedrooms, two bathrooms, a balcony, and ample attic storage. The lower level is an entertainment hub, with a billiards room, media room, sitting area, and changing room. A separate Caretaker’s/Guest Cottage includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry, a full kitchen, and a family room. The workshop features 12-foot garage doors for boat or RV storage and includes woodworking equipment, work benches, mezzanine, and attic storage. The estate has two distinct waterfront features: a sheltered bay for swimming and tidepool exploration, and a point with deeper water access, perfect for watersports, along with stunning vistas and sunsets. Exceptional outdoor living spaces include a swimming pool, multiple patios, meandering trails, and manicured landscaping. Explore the bountiful surrounding waters and rugged coastline from your yacht or pleasure craft, with the convenience of a boathouse with a mechanized marine way. True resort style living year round!
