Own a piece of Victoria history: a Maclure Mansion built in 1907 - it's a beautiful example of British Arts and Crafts. This grand heritage home was divided into 5 units in 1945 and then further developed in 1991, when the present owner added a coach house to the property. The coach house has a bachelor unit on the top floor and a garage/workshop space below that could be converted to more finished space. Two of the other units have 2+ bedrooms and generous living spaces. 3 of the units are 1 bedrooms with the potential for expansion.This stately property houses 5 decorative fireplaces, hardwood floors, stained glass, period detailing, generous porches, garden space, and a fabulous location across from Beacon Hill Park. The suites have been renovated over the years by the owner, a master craftsman, and it shows. The tenants all love where they live and are an asset. Heat pump, gas furnace, 6 year old roof, gas HW. This home will draw you in and hold your attention!
