I have listed a new property at 8877 Lochside Dr in North Saanich. See details here

This prestigious waterfront address is 0.56 acre of highly sought-after oceanfront potential. Perched at the end of a long, flowering cherry tree-lined driveway, a charming bungalow rests between garden and sea. The stellar panoramic ocean views of Haro Strait take in Sidney’s evening lights, the Gulf Islands, and marine life. The large, gated, partially-fenced property has luxury builds on both sides. In the living room, a beamed cathedral ceiling and gas fireplace are viewed from the spacious adjoining dining room. The bright oak kitchen opens into the family room with a second gas fireplace. A glass-encased sunroom calls to all green thumbs and leads to an impressive expanse of lawn perfect for bocce. This gorgeous high bank property even has a secret path down to the beach that could possibly be converted into your own stairwell to the beach. This oceanfront gem is so close to Sidney yet feels dreamily private. Move-in-ready OR purchase to build your luxury waterfront dream home!
