A pair of Oak Bay houses is up for moving if someone has the land.
Looking for a bungalow or Black Beauty to move in to? A pair of Oak Bay homes – a tidy bungalow and a massive rancher – is up for grabs at $124,700 and $169,000 respectively, including local delivery courtesy of the Nickel Bros.
Prices include the house with local delivery and lowering onto the foundation, though costs vary based on things such as final location, site accessibility and utility line work involved.
The 1,300 square-foot bungalow features three bedrooms, two baths and large windows over beautiful maple floors and cove ceilings.
“It fits nicely on those narrow lots, with fresh paint, cedar siding, and a new roof, this is one to save,” the listing reads.
“Upgrades in the kitchen and bathroom, along with a kid’s bedroom and bathroom upstairs make for a great small, family home. Call your local office now as time is limited to keep this one from the landfill!”
Black Beauty, on the other hand, is for someone looking to live large – 1,750 square feet to be precise.
The two-bed, two-bath custom home includes laminate flooring and black stucco exterior, as well as a black bathroom.
“The expansive living space, formal dining area, and an upgraded kitchen all present well for entertaining,” the listing reads.
Defining the term home delivery since 1956, keeping houses out of landfills is the name of the game for Nickel Bros. and that’s the goal for all three homes.
Over the decades, Nickel Bros. has performed hundreds of historic building moves, thousands of character and modern building moves and thousands of house-lifting projects. The company sees the relocation of quality recycled houses and upcycled houses as its greatest environmental impact.
Built in 1921 and designed with Arts and Crafts inspiration, a third recent listing – location not disclosed – carries a sense of urgency. The Dainty Dollhouse is a two-bedroom, one-bath cottage with hardwood floors available for $110,700.
Featuring wood floors and period features throughout, the living room is filled with natural light. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated, blending modern conveniences with classic design elements.
“This one won’t wait! Very short timeline to save this dollhouse from the wrecking ball!” the listing reads.
