I'm not sure about the current tenant's gardening skills.   I like how he or she is prepared for rising sea levels with that extra couple layers of bricks though.

 

Washer, but no dryer, interesting.

 

I'm not sure about the current tenant's brick-laying skills.

 

Although that mirror is giving a good illusion.

Looks like this new house just completing will have a nice pool, and putting green below.

 

 

Or just a nice little lawn maybe.

So picturesque it was once the setting of a Hollywood movie featuring Matthew McConaughey, this 6,044-foot 4-bed 6-bath residence stationed on an exceptional 1.01-acre waterfront lot with 370 feet of shoreline is ripe for renovation or redevelopment. Just 3 mins drive to UVic and 15 minutes from downtown Victoria, BC, this gated property offers ultimate privacy, 270-degree water and island views, expansive patios, an infinity pool, geo-thermal heated granite floors and more. Thanks to Bill 44, this generous waterfront property could accommodate multiple residences. Or, transform the existing luxury home by updating its contemporary Scandinavian design with a new metal roof and HardiePlank siding. Similarly, the existing residence’s north and south wings offer distinct living spaces that could be devoted to an owner’s suite, and quarters to house children / young adults, guests, or home support staff to allow the future owner to gracefully age in place. Bring your creative vision home!
