2881 Phyllis St

On a peaceful cul-de-sac in Ten Mile Point, one of Victoria’s most coveted enclaves of wooded lanes, hidden coves and secluded beaches, this 0.4-acre property backs onto Konukson Park, minutes from Cadboro Bay Village and UVic. A custom cedar entry and a front porch with views of Mount Baker make a lasting first impression. Inside, nearly 4,600 sq ft is made for entertaining. An expansive dining room surrounded by windows, a stone wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors and skylights set the tone, while adjoining family rooms and Sonos sound flow indoors and out. Four large main-floor bedrooms include three with ensuites and two opening to the deck. Below, a flexible suite with its own entrance, laundry and patio suits in-laws, teens or a mortgage helper, and a family room can join it as a second bedroom or stay with the main home. The private southwest-facing yard is a true retreat, with 2,000 sq ft of decks and patios, a pergola, a sunken fire pit, sweeping lawn and mature trees.
