Presents
16-18 Victoria Street- For Sale
O’Dea’s Realty is pleased to present 16-18 Victoria St.
As the address implies, the home occupies a double lot which includes off street parking.
The home represents downtown post-fire, vernacular architecture at its best.
Viewers will feel a sense of Feng Shui energy when visiting the interior spaces, and this is complemented with a zen garden that can stimulate your meditative thoughts.
Upon entering the front porch, you will enjoy the open concept kitchen and eating area which leads to an incredible studio / living room space that boasts 12 ft ceilings and in-floor heating. The studio was built to high standards for use by a musician.
Off the studio is a substantial deck with additional access off the kitchen, with an outstanding garden perspective and a harbour and City view that is even more magnificent.
On the second level there is a full bathroom with claw foot soaker tub with ceiling mounted shower enclosure. The second floor space also boasts a large living room /den which could also be configured for additional bedroom space. In addition there is an office space, about 50 sq ft, with a view from the workspace that looks right through the narrows of St. John’s Harbour, up to Signal Hill and out over downtown St. John’s. Step out from the office where you will be enthralled with the view from the second tier of the three tier deck.
The third floor has two bedrooms and a half bathroom. Step onto the third tier of the deck from the master bedroom to relish summer sunsets, and you can just contemplate what you see overlooking the City and the garden.
The downtown fenced, well-designed garden on the double lots may be one of the best garden space in the inner city. Plantings include: Japanese Maple, Englishman’s Ivy, Flowering Crab, Weeping Birch, Honeysuckle, Forsythia, Spirea, Holly, Rhododendron, Azaleas, Peonies, Tulips, and a Lilac tree.
The full basement space is a bonus, and somewhat unique among vernacular downtown houses. Although mostly undeveloped, it covers the full house footprint and can readily be developed for any use. There is also back garden access from the basement.
This home is very special in every way and awaits your viewing pleasure. Simply call Chris O’Dea at 685-6559 (area code 709).
Asking price $419,000
