PERFECT RANCHER! First time on the market for this cherished 3-bed, 1-bath rancher offering 1,510 sqft of comfortable living space on a beautiful 0.35-acre lot. Built in 1976 and lovingly maintained by its original owner, the home sits in a quiet, friendly neighbourhood close to parks and transit. Recent updates include a new roof, vinyl windows, heat pump, and a refreshed 4-piece bathroom with a walk-in shower. Inside, enjoy an eat-in kitchen with classic wood cabinets, an inline dining room with slider to the covered patio, a cozy family room, and a traditional living room with an electric fireplace. The oversized mudroom and laundry area serve as the perfect catch-all. Three nicely sized bedrooms complete the layout. Outside, the private yard is a hidden gem with mature landscaping, a workshop, and multiple sheds. A rare opportunity to make a well-loved Sooke home your own.
