Description

Open House Saturday August 29, 1:00-2:30. James Bay Gem!! Some homes simply feel different the moment you walk through the door, and this beautifully renovated residence is one of them. Bathed in natural light, this sophisticated one-bedroom plus den home has been thoughtfully redesigned to maximize both comfort and its beautiful Inner Harbour outlook. A newly created sitting area provides the perfect place to relax with a morning coffee, read a book or simply watch the activity on the water. The stunning custom kitchen is truly the heart of the home, featuring extensive upgrades, quality cabinetry, generous workspace and an open design that flows effortlessly into the spacious dining and living areas. Engineered wood floors add warmth and elegance throughout. The spacious primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a walk-through closet with laundry leading into the beautifully renovated bathroom, creating the feel of a luxurious private suite. Outside, your private patio is ideal for gardening, entertaining or simply enjoying the fresh ocean air. Dog owners will especially appreciate the direct walk-out access to the Inner Harbour waterfront pathway—perfect for daily strolls without ever needing an elevator. This sought-after waterfront community also offers its own private marina, making it easy to keep your boat close to home (subject to availability). Secure parking and storage add everyday convenience, while privacy landscaping enhancement will further beautify the outdoor setting. From your front door, enjoy one of Victoria's most desirable neighbourhoods. Walk to Fisherman's Wharf for fresh seafood, downtown's shops and restaurants, the Dallas Road waterfront, Ogden Point, Beacon Hill Park, theatres, cafés and countless waterfront paths. This is more than a beautifully renovated condominium—it's a relaxed coastal lifestyle in the heart of James Bay. (id:63159)

Amenities

6/9 categories nearby

Transit

Not enough data yet

How this is calculated

Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.

Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.

Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.
