Description

Welcome to this light infused upper suite of Rosethorpe, a fully updated, meticulously restored character home in the heart of James Bay.  Ideal for anyone looking for a unique, comfortable temporary home in a serene, tree lined neighbourhood just minutes from downtown. This immaculate suite has just been renovated and is fully furnished, tastefully decorated and move- in-ready, offering 1100 square feet of contemporary living at its best in a stellar location.  The exceptionally large living/dining room and the master bedroom have skylit, 14 foot ceilings.  The small second bedroom is perfect as a child's bedroom, guest bedroom or as an additional home office, den or workout studio.  The spacious, well equipped kitchen and the home office overlook beautifully manicured gardens and quaint heritage rooftops.  Suite access is via a private entrance at the side of the house, with outdoor steps leading to an inside staircase.  Laundry is ensuite and there is exceptional closet and storage space throughout.  Private, off street parking is provided in the driveway. The monthly fee includes water, and garbage collection -  everything except wifi, electricity and gas. The suite is well heated by a gas fireplace and electric baseboards.  Sorry, this suite has brand new carpets so no pets! Rosethorpe is located on a quiet cul de sac, in the prettiest cluster of heritage homes in James Bay. It's steps from Beacon Hill Park, overlooking the ocean.  Enjoy long strolls along Victoria's stunning Dallas Road waterfront, both on cliffside trails and along the beach itself - just a 7 minute walk away.  Amble to James Bay Village's grocery and coffee shops, restaurants, a yoga studio and the Victoria Health Club and pool, library and other amenities, in just 5 minutes.  Likewise, Cook Street Village with all its attractions is just a 15 minute walk across the Park.  Access to the University of Victoria, Camosun College and Victoria's Jubilee Hospital is facilitated by an excellent bus service (all within 30 minutes) and an extensive network of bike lanes. Victoria's legislature and Courthouse are just 12 minutes by foot.  James Bay Community School and South Park School are also within a few minutes walking distance.
