Wonderful character home with large deck & yard in walking distance to beaches, schools & amenities
Large (2800 square feet), updated 100-yr old character home with 4-5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, open concept main floor in a very nice, family-friendly area of Victoria (Oak Bay). Huge yard for kids, large sundeck, bbq & gardens. Prime location within short walking distance to everything: local beaches (10 min), parks (2-5 min), rec centre/pool (5 min), schools (2-5 min) & all amenities in Oak Bay Village (5 min to grocery, shops, coffeeshops, restaurants, pub, bookstores, pharmacy, public library, bakeries, deli, weekly summer night markets, etc.). High-speed internet & WiFi available. Scenic downtown Victoria & UVic are both ~5km away (5-10 min. drive). Vehicle negotiable and bus stops 2 blocks in any direction. Victoria, capital of British Columbia, is a quaint, welcoming historic city on southern Vancouver Island about 1.5 hrs from Vancouver. Known as Canada's Garden City, you can enjoy a multitude of attractions including the Royal BC Museum, BC Parliament, historic Empress Hotel, Butchart Gardens, Emily Carr House, Art Gallery, the Moss St. Paint-in & Market and numerous wineries/cideries/micro-breweries/distilleries. We enjoy the mildest climate in Canada (winters ~5-10C, summers dry 20-25C) and the island offers every outdoor activity: great hiking, surfing, mountain biking, skiing, fishing, whale watching, beach combing, sailing, kayaking, golfing, etc. UVic, BC's 2nd largest university, is consistently ranked as one of Canada's top comprehensive universities and is a great place to connect and collaborate.

My wife and I are Faculty at the University of Victoria, BC Canada. We are traveling to Europe with our young children (4 and 1 yrs) for our coming sabbatical. We offer our large 100-yr old character home in a wonderful, quiet, family-friendly area of Victoria (Oak Bay) for rent or exchange during this time. We are open to destinations anywhere, although we have collaborations in Scotland, Ireland, France and Spain.
