Welcome to the Layer-Hall Residence. Built in 1913, this lovingly maintained Foursquare character home dominates its Old City block with large eave brackets, projecting bays, character windows and a generous verandah facing the park and ocean views. Inside, the original 1913 charm lives on: stained glass, brass fixtures, wood paneling, oak and fir floors, beamed ceilings, and a Newcastle Island sandstone fireplace. The gracious foyer greets you as you enter, transports you to a different time, and leads you up the magnificent staircase to 3 bedrooms that fill with natural light. The private back garden features fruit trees, private alley access, and a large lot that has the potential and room to grow.
Major updates for modern peace of mind: brand new roof, fully updated electrical with 200amp panel, new hot water/combi-boiler system & pex plumbing, renovated kitchen, plus a French drainage system. Step back in time, step up to grand living — with heritage soul and harbour light.
