Located next to Spinnakers Pub along the scenic Songhees Walkway, this strata duplex has long served as a guest house and is now ready for new opportunities. The upper suite, 213 Mary Street, is a spacious one-bedroom featuring vaulted ceilings, skylights, and ocean views. A second bed-sitting room with its own bath and coffee bar may also be used as a rental, subject to city bylaws. The owner must occupy one suite but may rent out additional rooms with bathrooms on a short-term basis. Both the upper and lower suites (215 Mary MLS1023808) offer flexibility under RJ-4 Mary (Transient Home) zoning. Each unit includes driveway parking and two hot water tanks, and the roof was replaced in 2017. With both units currently owned by one party, no strata council is in place. This versatile property sits in a prime waterfront location just a 15-minute walk from the Inner Harbour and Empress Hotel—an exceptional opportunity to live or invest in a vibrant, amenity-rich neighbourhood.
