Open House Saturday 11:00-1:00
Arts & Crafts grande dame. 'Wynyates" is a heritage home originally built in 1912 and gracefully ushered into the 21st century with a sympathetic remodel completed in 2016.
The handsome exterior offers a majestic gable roofline, shingled exterior and a covered porch with an inviting entry to this substantial residence.
The sunny interior enters through a spacious foyer boasting original fir hardwood floors, board and batten paneling, a coffered ceiling, and a curved wall of leaded windows. Similar character design elements are echoed throughout the home, with modern conveniences tastefully interspersed. A gas fireplace with commanding granite surround is the focal point of the expansive living room. The den is an enticing place to curl up with a book beside the gas fireplace.
The kitchen is well-appointed and boasts a 6-burner gas range, quartz counters and butler’s pantry with coffee bar, wine fridge and convenient access to the adjacent dining room. Upstairs, the generous primary bedroom has a 5-piece ensuite bathroom plus walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom complete the upper level, which has access to a large balcony, ideal for cozy evenings around a fire pit.
On the lower level is a media room. In addition, an attractive 2-bedroom suite with separate access, is ideal for in-laws or rental income.
Enjoy this walkable location on the Oak Bay border with Demitasse cafe, the Abkhazi Garden, excellent schools and Gonzales Beach just a short stroll away!
