A 3 bedroom house in North Saanich/Sidney, Canada

Our beautiful home looks westward over an inlet of the Pacific Ocean with mountains beyond and spectacular sunsets.
We built the house to suit my manual and power wheelchairs. Our home is bright and very comfortable with spacious master bedroom and accessible bathroom with hoist on main floor, also on the same level living, dining room and kitchen. All main floor rooms open onto a large patio for alfresco summer dining. Upstairs there is a large sitting room with balcony, 2 bedrooms and bathroom for family and friends
