Hemingways By the Sea $1,295,000

The place tourists love to visit - Victoria, British Columbia, Canada! Located in the southern part of Vancouver Island just off the coast of the BC mainland, Victoria boasts of a Mediterranean-like climate - gorgeous summers and mild winters. You can access Victoria via the BC Ferries from the BC mainland (about 1-1/2 hours) or hop on the Clipper (no cars) from Seattle, Washington or by ferry from Port Angeles. Of course, sea planes can land at the Inner Harbour in the heart of Victoria or fly into Victoria's International Airport. This gorgeous city is also the capital of British Columbia with the historic provincial parliament buildings situated by the Inner Harbour.
Location! Location! Location! To run a successful Bed & Breakfast you have to be located where tourists long to come. Hemingways By the Sea is in this ideal location. Only a 6 minute drive to Victoria’s Inner Harbour for shopping, restaurants and other attractions. A short walk will take you to two beautiful ocean side locations. This Tudor-style elegant mansion and the 5 beautifully appointed suites reflect Hemingway’s era of a romantic hideaway. The exquisite antique furnishings add to this ambiance. Owner’s quarters consist of an additional 2 bedrooms, private bath and separate entrance. There is more space on the lower level with office and some unfinished areas. The property has ample parking and a separate 600 sq ft building with electricity, wired for phone and plumbed. The manicured grounds, patio and decks offer wonderful relaxing areas for guests. The B& B’s website contains much more information and photos and is worth a visit. The website would be included with the sale of this property. (Note - the website focuses on only 3 guest suites not on all 5). In total this property contains 7 bedrooms and 6 baths.
Hemingways By the Sea is not only a good real estate investment but, given that the B & B is operated by only one host, it also generates good revenues. There is potential to increase revenues through greater services and year-round operations with two hosts operating the B & B. This is a turn-key operation! Enjoy a wonderful life style with a good real estate investment and regular cash flow.
