Helping My Buyer Find Their Dream Home at 608-1159 Beach Dr, Oak Bay 🌊✨

I’m so excited to share that I recently represented the buyer on the purchase of a gorgeous property at 608–1159 Beach Drive in Oak Bay, officially sold on September 24, 2025.

This one was special. Tucked inside Hampshire House—a highly sought-after steel and concrete waterfront building with private beach access—this home offered exactly what my client was searching for: light, space, and the kind of views that instantly calm the soul.

The top-floor, corner unit spans over 1,200 sq. ft. with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a wrap-around covered deck. From nearly every main room, you’re treated to sweeping ocean and garden views, framed by lush greenery for privacy and serenity. Add in the charm of a cozy wood-burning fireplace, gleaming oak floors, and freshly updated bathrooms, and it was clear this home was the right fit.

Beyond the condo itself, the building is a gem - located right next door to the Oak Bay Beach Hotel & Spa and a short walk to the Victoria Golf Club, Oak Bay Marina, and the shops and cafés of Oak Bay Avenue. With thoughtful amenities like a guest suite, viewing lounge, workshop, free laundry, and bike storage, it’s the perfect blend of convenience and community.

Moments like this remind me why I love what I do—helping people find not just a property, but the home that feels like the one. Congratulations to my buyer on securing such a beautiful place to call home by the sea. 🌿🏡 🌊
