Oak Bay Waterfront Real Estate

Locally known as “behind the tweed curtain” in homage to original British development of the area, Oak Bay is a Victoria municipality challenging stereotypes and offering alternatives. Oak Bay is both established and innovating, and maintains an easy hospitality in keeping with the inclusive community atmosphere.

Read

This desirable heritage neighbourhood located just 4 kilometres from downtown Victoria has a distinct British influence that has been maintained over generations. This influence is so powerful that even today, Oak Bay is locally referred to as ‘behind the tweed curtain’! Despite its age and repute, this neighbourhood continues to be innovating and maintains an inclusive and vibrant residential and commercial community. Unlike many North American neighbourhoods, Oak Bay was designed using a British ‘high street’ model creating a neighbourhood village on the main street, Oak Bay Avenue, comprising important daily commercial business such as banks and grocery stores as well as specialty boutiques, wellness centres, cafes, restaurants and more! Radiating outward from Oak Bay Avenue are beautiful green spaces, stunning beaches, exclusive recreation clubs, oceanfront resorts, top-tier public and private schools and premium assisted-living facilities. While this area is generally known for its higher real estate price tag, affluent clients looking to invest in this elegant borough of Victoria can find single-family homes on idyllic streets, high-end condos, and stunning oceanfront homes.

Imagine being able to enjoy the wonders of an active beachfront from your secluded and luxurious esplanade house. Enjoy ocean, island and mountain views overlooking your mature garden from spaces perfect for entertaining or quiet contemplation. A dramatic entry invites you into 4 terraced levels with a staircase that rises with the slope of the site. Each of the 3 self-contained bedroom suites provide geographic seclusion. The award-winning kitchen is a culinary masterpiece. Open, serene, and finely crafted with high ceilings of polished cedar and terrazzo flooring. A custom sauna and steam shower provide space for relaxation. In contrast to the colourful beachfront, the rear outdoor space is a Japanese garden retreat, featuring an Ofuro tub in a glass-roofed pavilion. The Esplanade House, designed by D'Ambrosio Architecture, is a contemporary expression of the traditions of West-Coast Modernism, and a peaceful 5 minute stroll to Uplands Park, Willows Park, and Estevan Village.
