Just steps from Swan Lake Nature Sanctuary, this inviting Brett Ave home offers privacy, comfort, and flexibility in one of Victoria's most convenient, amenity-rich neighbourhoods. A private, established backyard on a 4,848 sq ft lot creates a peaceful outdoor retreat, with parking for three vehicles and shopping, recreation, and transit close at hand. The Lochside Trail begins at the end of this quiet cul-de-sac for easy walking and biking. The main level features two bedrooms, one bathroom with heated tile floor, an open kitchen and dining area, separate laundry, and a spacious coved-ceiling living room centred on a wood-burning fireplace. Skylights in the dining area and bathroom add ample natural light. The lower level offers a one-bedroom, one-bathroom in-law suite: excellent flexibility for extended family, guests, or additional living space. Recent updates include the kitchen, heat pump, deck, and electrical improvements.
