Tucked into the heart of Jubilee/Fernwood, this upper 2 bed unit in a 4-plex lives like a single level home, not a condo. Hardwood floors & coved ceilings run through a bright, spacious living room, while the kitchen offers a pantry & sunny eating nook for slow mornings. The primary bedroom includes 2 closets, the 2nd bedroom is equally generous & the bath's soaker tub is made for unwinding after a long day. In-unit laundry, a back door straight to your own parking stall & south facing shared yard w/ grapevines, peach & plum trees to harvest each summer. The roof was replaced in 2019 & this is a family-oriented, pet-friendly building w/ genuine neighbourhood charm. Bring your big dogs! At $362 a month, strata fees include designated parking stall, 2 guest stalls, common storage & garden space, easy care living without giving up any outdoor charm. The location can't be beat, minutes to Camosun, UVic & Royal Jubilee Hospital. More than a unit, this is a home ready for its next family.
