Victoria, BC V8S1M4 1451 Brooke St

Fairfield half duplex in an idyllic location with amazing suite potential! Just steps to excellent schools, shops, and the ocean, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom duplex has the advantage of a gorgeous, fully fenced corner yard.  The oak floors and coved ceilings are a testament to the 1950s, with an attractive upgraded stone fireplace, mahogany mantel, and electric insert in the living room. The separate kitchen which is pre-wired for a wall oven, has views over the sunny backyard. There are 2 ample bedrooms and a bathroom on this level or it can be switched to a living room, dining room and one bedroom, providing flexibility for growing families, property managers, or future development. The lower level bedroom and bathroom can easily be converted to a 1-bedroom suite as it is plumbed for a kitchen. The huge laundry room with newer appliances is also a convenient storage space. Lighting throughout the house was recently updated, and the house is alarmed with motion detectors. Perimeter drains were replaced about 15 years ago, and the roof is 15 years old. Truly a unique opportunity to get into this coveted neighbourhood near Brooke Street Park, Gonzales Beach, Fairfield Plaza, the Moss Street Market, and the gardens at Government House. Take advantage of government grant programs such as suite conversions and heat pump upgrades! (id:7434)
