Property Description
Open House Sunday, October 26th 1–3pm. Designed in 1911 by Samuel Maclure for the Shaw family, this landmark residence blends architectural pedigree with modern livability. Hidden down a long driveway yet just a 10-minute walk to Oak Bay Village, it feels like a country house in the city.
Set on over half an acre of mature gardens, the home offers 5,600 sq. ft. of finished living space and rises from a granite outcropping, in keeping with Maclure's belief that a home should emerge from the land. It retains original leaded glass, rewired light fittings, stained glass in several rooms, and a cedar exterior believed milled from the estate. A later Maclure-era renovation added two sunrooms and a south-facing deck.
Features a reimagined kitchen, upgraded electrical, cedar roof, rebuilt chimneys, hot tub, yoga/art loft, and a vacant suite with separate laundry. Offered below its 2025 assessed value, this is an exceptional opportunity to own a landmark home of this scale and character.
