Welcome to 1717 Arbutus Terrace—a beautifully crafted, custom-built rancher (2022) with lower level, perfectly positioned above the shimmering waters of the Saanich Inlet. Set on nearly 2 acres at the end of a quiet no-through road, this home offers ocean views from nearly every principal room. The main level features 3 bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, and a bright open-concept living and dining area with seamless access to a spacious deck. The well-appointed kitchen is a standout, and the primary suite enjoys direct deck access. The lower level includes a fully self-contained 2-bedroom walk-out legal suite with acoustic insulation, previously operated as a B&B with 5-star reviews, offering excellent flexibility for extended family or income. A detached log cabin-style workshop with loft, ocean views, deck, renovated bathroom, kitchenette, and propane fireplace adds incredible versatility for projects or hobbies. Ample parking accommodates multiple vehicles, RVs, and boats. Ideally located just minutes to Bamberton Provincial Park and its beach—perfect for swimming, kayaking, and enjoying the warm sheltered waters of the inlet. At low tide, explore the shoreline for beachcombing and clam digging. Close to Brentwood College School and Cowichan Valley wineries, with convenient access via the Brentwood Bay ferry. Approximately 35 minutes to Victoria, 20 minutes to Langford, and 10 minutes to Duncan. A rare opportunity to enjoy space, privacy, and stunning West Coast views.
