About this property
Modern Living in Old Town-Absolutley Unique in the heart of Victoria, very clean
Be thrilled with this newly converted heritage two level loft!
Located in the historic, designer, and theatre district of Victoria. This loft is in a private, locked, and quiet brick courtyard with your own patio. As well, there is international dining, amazing coffee shops, and live music all within walking distance, including our famous Inner Harbor with ferry and seaplane services. You would be exactly where you want to be within walking distance of everything wonderful Victoria has to offer, especially the ocean.
WHO cleaning standards.
What's unique about this is the 17' ceilings, original old brick walls, great art, and separate entrance. There is a luxurious queen bedroom upstairs in addition to a high quality pull out queen sofa bed downstairs -- sleeping four in total.
It has all the modern amenities including internet, TV, cable, Bluetooth speaker, stainless steel appliances, in suite laundry, quality stocked kitchen a chef would enjoy, and a modern fireplace for the perfect vacation.
Secure off street parking is included located in a lot right across from the entrance to the unit. I have a pass you put on your mirror for any spot in the lot.
Weekly/Monthly rates available on request.
I look forward to sharing with you my local knowledge of Victoria.

About the host
Hosted by Christine MacKenzie
Hi my name is Christine and I grew up in Red Deer Alberta and moved to Victoria in 1986 to graduate from U Vic with a degree in Human and Social Development, and several years later graduated with a certificate in Adult Education. I work for the BC government, Community Living BC in Human Resources training all our new staff.
I determined to live in Victoria to raise my two now adult children in Victoria and currently live in Oak Bay.
I have had the privilege of travelling to several amazing countries around the world, made friends, and plan to continuing travelling.

Why they chose this property
I choose this property because I have lived here for years and always wanted to be in the historic center. I love the downtown vibe of Victoria, it is full of life, artists, musicians, galleries, restaurants. I love talking with all the local shop keepers, especially the Italian baker right outside the gate as well as a fantastic coffee shop.The location bursts with charm, it makes me feel like the ultimate city living.
What makes this property unique
I particularly love this property over others because it is funky, stunningly beautiful, has real brick and 17' ceilings, it charmed me the moment I saw it, all the 25 units sold within 24 hrs. the location is spectacular, and I love being there. I looked at other buildings but they were noisy at night and heard traffic, the way this complex is designed I cannot hear typical city noise, it is quiet, yet right where I want to be.
