552 Paradise St

Let the light shine in through this amazing property! Located steps to the beginning of the Westsong Waterfront Walkway (walk to downtown along the water in under 30 minutes), you can enjoy all of what Esquimalt has to offer from your door step. The Farmer's market at Bullen Park starts this week, there is a burgeoning arts community and an abundance of physical activities to enjoy at the Rec Centre and the Archie Browning ice rink Center. All levels of public school close by, plus the popular Francophone school, Victor Brodeur. An open concept feel on the main floor with an updated kitchen (farmhouse style apron ceramic sink, work island, soft close hardware), living room with a traditional brick fireplace, fir mantle and gas insert, and an eating space with a fun built-in pew to accommodate extra bodies for a socializing. Easy access to the private patio to take the party outside! There is a large laundry room where you can bring in the wet dogs and kids to get cleaned up, or it would double as a good craft room, office, or storage space. Upstairs is the primary retreat, and a split room offers sleeping on one side and a dressing area or office space on the other. A huge bonus with this property is the garage/workshop. An ideal candidate for a garden cottage as Esquimalt expands to embrace higher density. If you are looking for a separate shop, it is a luxurious light-filled space with vaulted ceilings at the back part, and its own electrical sub panel. The yard is fenced, totally private and features a large variety of fruit trees and raspberry canes. Pre-inspection report available upon request to make your decision to purchase easier.
