Downstairs has an in-law suite one bedroom and four piece bathroom, large living room decent kitchen.

Also downstairs is a workshop and a laundry area as well as deep freeze and storage shelves.

Large oversize Attached garage. could generate about $2000 a month as a rental unit.

Each level has an unused fireplace. Upstairs is finished in white rock where-as the suite fireplace has not been faced but both are as new and unused.

*important note* The unique landscape and the view it provides is where the value is in this property. it is a million dollar view.

Difficult to put a road in but can possibly be accomplished with some blasting to reach midpoint plateau.

Standing at bottom of Pearce crescent the third knowle down from top of Mt Douglas is what you are purchasing, atop the bald spot is where a home would likely best fit to achieve the Victoria Harbour and Cordova Bay James Island view.

Zoned a1 Rural Residential 4439 currently juts beyond tree line into Mt Douglas park  abutting ~100 feet from trail. The distance between two telephone poles mark the approximate property lines (below) going back into the park in parallel. Build your Castle on this one of a kind spot atop this hill seen above and below. There is NO OTHER spot available on Mount Douglas to build a home high atop the rock to achieve the Western view from Olympic Mountains in USA, Victoria Harbour and pan across to the North Shore Mountains over James Island and Cordova Bay. A full 200 degrees of Fabulous unimpeded view no one else has as there are NO homes built on west side of Mt Doug. This is the only spot on Mt Doug where building is still an option.

There are many indigenous plants and animals including Rabbits, deer, racoons, turkey vultures, hawks, ravens, robins and Eagles that inhabit both the valley and the land at 4439 Blenkinsop. It is a pristine natural environment that exists on the four acres of rock 4439 is mainly comprised of. the fifth acre is the front acre where house and side field are located.

Protected Arbutus and Gary Oak trees thrive in abundance. Many 150 year old Fir trees are also present.

It is best if you read the Blenkinsop Valley Plan which is available at www.saanich.ca to fully understand the protective measures already in place for ecology and urban containment within the Blenkinsop Valley.
