Discover a spacious, private sanctuary in one of Victoria’s most desirable residential neighborhoods. Situated near the Hillside Mall, Upper Forrester is a bright, beautifully appointed 1,200-square-foot executive home that balances quiet neighborhood charm with exceptional city convenience. Featuring a highly flexible layout and expansive private outdoor living space, this upper-level residence provides an ideal retreat for extended stays, corporate relocations, or family trips.

Designed for comfort and effortless everyday living, the sunlit main floor features pristine hardwood floors, expansive windows, and a cozy main lounge equipped with a classic white brick fireplace hearth. The fully equipped kitchen showcases retro yellow cabinetry, a gas range stove, stainless steel refrigerator, and an adjacent dining nook with a round glass-top table set for four.
