realtor's description

Welcome to 1271 McKenzie Street, a character-filled home where timeless details meet thoughtful modern updates. The open-concept main floor connects the living, dining and kitchen spaces beneath striking post-and-beam ceilings, complemented by a wood-burning fireplace, stained glass windows, wood flooring and custom built-in cabinetry with wine storage. The showstopper kitchen pairs exposed brick with granite countertops, gas appliances, a Sub-Zero fridge and Miele dishwasher. Upstairs offers three bedrooms and two updated bathrooms, while a heat pump provides year-round comfort. A separate one-bedroom suite accommodation adds valuable flexibility. Outside, a south-facing two-level deck captures Olympic Mountain views, overlooking a private Zen-inspired backyard with hot tub and gas fireplace surrounded by lush greenery and approximately a dozen olive trees. All just minutes to Cook Street Village, Beacon Hill Park, Dallas Road and Clover Point. Some photos are Virtually staged.

Suite rent is today's market rent for a 1-bedroom in Cook St., Victoria: CMHC's average there ($1,568) raised by what new tenants pay against everyone in the Victoria area, then down 1% with Victoria's asking rents, 2025 Q4 → 2026 Q2. (CMHC Rental Market Survey, October 2025; CMHC Rental Market Report 2025, table 6.0 (rents on units that turned over to a new tenant); trend: Statistics Canada.) Houses usually rent for more than apartments. 25-year mortgage; rental purchases need at least 20% down.
