Welcome to 1847 El Sereno Dr—an inviting 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offering 2,900 sqft of living space on a level 8,500 sqft lot. This is a rare opportunity to establish roots in Gordon Head, one of Victoria’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. The home features a functional, well-designed layout that truly makes sense. A bright main level offers a welcoming living room with access to a front facing balcony, a kitchen and family room that steps out onto a deck overlooking the expansive, level backyard—a quiet, private space for children and gardening. The lower level provides excellent flexibility: large rec room, a double garage, and a 2-bedroom suite potential. Already plumbed for a kitchen and featuring under-deck patio, ideal for extended family or future rental income. Year-round comfort with an efficient gas furnace, gas fireplaces and a fairly new roof. Buyers will appreciate the quiet street, proximity to UVic, Mt. Douglas Park, beaches, and highly regarded public schools.
