[zoomer]

Ok, for post 1,000 (hey, that's an average of one per year!) I've decided to start a new thread.

Rules (recommendations..):

-Post a maximum of one home per day
-Maximum of 20 photos per post
-Video links allowed
-Try to share homes which highlight the local surroundings, environment so others can imagine what it would be like to live in that house and city.

There is a nice 18 million dollar house I have my eye on in Victoria, but to prevent a bidding war, I'll keep that quiet for now. First, is a house, which is actually quite close to downtown Victoria:

237 King George Terr


For Sale: $6,950,000 CAD

$249,000 PRICE REDUCTION! The Two Sea Lions, made out of one piece of jadeite rock found at the foothills of the Cascades accompany you, as you experience the Panoramic Ocean and active sea life views to Trial Island, the Strait of Juan De Fuca out to the Olympic Mountains. This stunning home sits deep on the property and is very private with mature gardens, rolling lawns and gorgeous flagstone patios, an ocean's edge infinity pool and hot tub. Beautiful views from every room of this luxurious fully updated waterfront estate with a 4 bedroom and 6 bathroom main house, a 1 bedroom self contained cottage and the pool cabana with sauna on the huge sheltered south facing patio. The home enchants you with refitted antique lights, warm wide plank floors, wainscoting and charming built-ins and crown mouldings. The Kitchen is a show piece, offering outstanding professional grade appliances, custom counters and colonial cabinetry. Along with the dining area & living room you enjoy all the south east oceanfront views. There is a family room with a cozy Swedish Kakelugn fireplace to warm you and just off the pantry is a 1200 bottle wine cellar, outside, a spectacular, covered chef's kitchen complete with a fireplace & second hot tub sharing the sun and water views. State of the art upgrades include Milgard Ultra windows, geothermal heat, an extensive outdoor lighting system, an under ground sprinkler system and a top security and sound system throughout. Outside you will also enjoy a sport court and a lovely garden. This amazing waterfront in prestigious Oak Bay is only 10 minutes to downtown Victoria just minutes to the Victoria Golf Course, Oak Bay Marina and Victoria Yacht Club. With the mild local climate, quiet lifestyle and stunning surroundings this is truly a unique and beautiful piece of property to own on Canada's west coast.
