Gently sloping and generously sized, this waterfront lot sits along the tranquil Gorge Waterway in Esquimalt’s Kinsmen Park / Gorge Vale Golf Course neighbourhood. Just under half an acre, the property offers outstanding potential—subdivide into two lots, explore development under Provincial SSMUH regulations, or renovate and enjoy the existing three-storey home complete with suite, dock, garage, and spacious detached carport. Set on a quiet lane, the property offers privacy, mature landscaping, and peaceful northerly views across the Gorge, with true walk-on waterfront access. A rebuilt dock makes kayaking and paddling effortless. The home features a flexible layout with primary bedroom options on both the main and upper floors, each with its own ensuite. The main level offers expansive living and dining areas, while large windows, balconies, and decks capture water views from all three levels. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with cozy booth seating. Downstairs, you’ll find a large recreation room or potential third bedroom with ensuite, along with a substantial secondary suite (possible two-bedroom) with its own entrance. There’s ample parking for an RV, with a garage, carport, and generous driveway including a lower section. Additional storage and workshop space are also located on the lower level. A rare and versatile waterfront offering in a quiet, highly sought-after location—on the market for the first time, this cherished family home presents an exceptional opportunity.
