Occupying a coveted waterfront position at Swallows Landing, this exceptional sub-penthouse captures an ever-changing panorama of Victoria’s Inner Harbour from nearly every principal room and a magnificent 415 sq ft terrace designed for unforgettable entertaining that has a view of Mt. Baker. Nearly 2,400 sq ft of impeccably crafted living space offers a seamless balance of sophistication and comfort, with a bespoke Miele and Liebherr kitchen, privately separated bedroom suites, smart home integration, automated blinds, radiant in-floor heating, marble gas fireplace, floor-to-ceiling glass, and heat pump with air conditioning. A protected Garry Oak meadow preserves the views in perpetuity while connecting directly to the waterfront Westsong Walkway. Complete with two premium parking stalls and access to guest suites, this is one of Victoria’s truly exceptional harbourfront residences. (id:63159)

Amenities

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.
