About this house rental
This architect-designed home offers a quiet and comfortable living environment in a park forest setting just outside Victoria on Vancouver Island. The house was thoughtfully designed with an emphasis on natural light, proportion, and energy-efficient construction, creating a calm and functional space well suited for focused work, writing, or a sabbatical residence.
Large windows and open living areas frame views of the surrounding trees and landscape, while the interior layout balances openness with privacy. The home is fully furnished and equipped for everyday living, with a modern kitchen, comfortable workspaces, relaxing hangouts, and carefully considered architectural details throughout.
The property sits within a large protected forest park with extensive trails, lakes, and natural landscapes. Residents can step out the door to walk or run through quiet wooded paths, swim in nearby freshwater lakes during the warmer months, and enjoy year-round access to a remarkable urban wilderness.
Despite the natural setting, essential amenities are close by. Victoria General Hospital is only a short drive away, making the home particularly convenient for visiting medical professionals or researchers. A small neighborhood commercial center about 15 minutes away offers groceries, cafés, restaurants, pharmacy services, and everyday conveniences. The regional Galloping Goose multi-use trail, popular for cycling and walking, is also nearby and provides an great bike connection to downtown Victoria and surrounding communities.
This home is particularly well suited for visiting families vacationing or professionals on temporary assignment.
It is only available from July to September because it is our family home and we are away for that time.
