Bright, welcoming and wonderfully easy to live in, this charming home offers a thoughtful layout and plenty of natural light throughout. The kitchen is filled with sunshine and features a skylight, opening seamlessly to a delightful sunroom that is perfect for morning coffee or afternoon reading. The inviting family room, complete with fireplace, provides a warm and comfortable gathering space, while the principal bedroom offers the added convenience of a private ensuite bathroom. A sunny front courtyard greets guests and creates an appealing entrance, surrounded by lush, mature landscaping that gives the property a lovely sense of privacy and established beauty. The location is terrific, with shops, the wonderful Tonolli's Cafe, bus service, highway access and the village of Saanichton all close at hand.

Transit

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.
