I have sold a property at 458 Montery in Victoria on Jun 27, 2011. See details here
Rare character South Oak Bay house for sale, only a minute to the ocean (McNeil Bay) and pebble beach. "I don't think there's another property in Oak Bay with an Accessory Building this big and complete" says Lola the local know it all. I think she might be right. Notwithstanding the fact that this lovely two story home with garage is only two houses from Beach Drive and has the Park across the street and all the amenities of Oak Bay steps away; it might just be the Studio that pulls the whole thing together. The Main House is solid and well appointed with tree bedrooms and two bathrooms. Traditional in layout, comfortable and welcoming in style. Anyway, also found on the large corner lot is a three room, with two piece bathroom, office/media space. Gas heat, Covered Deck, six year old Parker Johnston Roof. A lovely home with a possible great place to work. The best of all worlds.
