2179 Crescent Road

This spectacular waterfront home is sited at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac boasting over 160’ of low bank waterfront with 270 degree views and rare south-west exposure.
World-class panoramic views are showcased from every room, providing an ever-changing palate of colour, from the golden glow of sunrise against the snow-capped Olympic Mts., to the crimson-hued sunsets over Gonzales Bay.

Completely re-built in 2014, this remarkable home is truly a piece of fine art, blending seamlessly with its natural surroundings and combining modern, clean architectural lines with dramatic, open living spaces and custom finishes that are truly timeless.

The shape of the property and the coastline helped determine the layout of the house as well as the materials used during construction, most notably the sustainable RHEINZINK exterior, its colour subtly morphing across the rocky coastline toward the blue ocean.

Wide plank, driftwood-toned French Oak flooring is featured throughout, with flexible living and dining spaces that can adapt to larger gatherings or smaller, intimate groups. The dramatic ‘wave panelled’ gourmet kitchen is itself a work of art, fully integrated with suspended cabinetry, abundant built-in storage drawers and cupboards, and a totally seamless look that ‘hides’ the Subzero fridge and dishwasher drawers.

A generous office/den on the main level opens out to a west-facing deck; finished with sustainable and low-maintenance Ipe decking and framed in beautiful structural aluminum.

Upstairs, the expansive master suite evokes the feeling of being on a yacht; views here are simply breath-taking! A sitting/reading alcove mirrors the prow of a ship: surrounded by the ocean in every direction. In the ensuite bathroom, the custom stained-glass Waterworks tile wall and terrazzo floor compliment the freestanding Bluestone soaker tub and oversized walk-in shower, with custom vanity and heated tile floors.

Two additional bedrooms are also located on the upper level, with an additional ‘spa-inspired’ bathroom that includes an Agape vanity, origami tile, heated pebble epoxy floor and an extra deep soaker tub. Timeless components throughout the house have been thoughtfully chosen for beauty and quality…

A fully finished walk-out lower level offers flexible spaces to utilize as games or exercise areas, media room, office or deluxe guest suite, with a lovely full bathroom, beautiful ocean views and options for addition bedroom(s).

Outside, the dramatic seaside setting is purposefully low/no maintenance, with optional patio/sitting areas and exceptional privacy….

Marine wildlife is abundant here, with seals, otters, sealions, and bald eagles making their home along the Southern Vancouver Island coastline, and the occasional pod of Orca whales feeding just outside Gonzales Bay.

Outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers are drawn to this special Harling Point neighbourhood, where it is easy to launch a kayak or paddleboard and explore the shoreline, and dog-walkers, joggers, walkers and cyclists are always welcome. Gonzales Beach is one of Victoria’s best-loved beaches, enjoying a sunny southern exposure, soft sand, and shallow/warmer water for swimmers….

Just 8 minutes from downtown Victoria by car, this special Oak Bay location offers convenient access to all amenities, excellent schools, parks and bike trails, with the Royal Victoria Yacht Club, Oak Bay Marina, Victoria Golf Club, Uplands Golf Club and University of Victoria just minutes away.

2179 Crescent Road is a truly unique and incredible seaside offering in one of the pacific northwest’s most treasured locations!
