About this property

Some homes offer a location, this offers a setting. Quietly positioned on an exclusive cul-de-sac of just 3 residences, directly across from the iconic Government House grounds, this is one of Rockland’s most discreet & coveted enclaves. Surrounded by majestic trees, manicured gardens, protected parklands & a short stroll to Craigdarroch Castle or waterfront, the property offers a rare sense of seclusion in the heart of the city. The charming character home has been lovingly maintained, blending enduring craftsmanship w/warmth & comfort. Beyond the main residence, a substantial detached over height garage/carriage house w/a self-contained bachelor suite above presents endless possibilities—guest space, private studio, home office, multigenerational living, or extra income. Properties in this remarkable lane seldom become available. A true urban sanctuary defined by privacy, prestige & an irreplaceable location—a rare opportunity to own a piece of Rockland’s most treasured streetscape.
