About this property

To purchase a 0.65-acre (28,314 square foot) commercially zoned corner lot, with a 3,041 square foot building currently occupied by the well-known family business “Gurton’s Garage”. The property can be purchased by an owner/user, an investor or a developer. If a purchaser requires a larger site, the property size can be expanded by assembling up to three residential lots to the north of the property on East Saanich Road (currently for sale), and one residential lot (currently owned by the Gurton family), located to the east of the property on McTavish Road, for a total site size of approximately 2.94 acres (128,066.40 square feet). This site is strategically located in the heart of Saanichton, B.C., on the northeast corner of McTavish Road and East Saanich Road, approximately 5 minutes from the YYJ Victoria International Airport and 10 minutes to the BC Ferries at Swartz Bay. Across the street (kiddie corner to the property) is the ever-so-famous Roost Farm, Winery, Bakery & Bistro, which is a favourite place for locals to hang out! The property has been owned by the Gurton family for multiple generations and hasn’t come to market in over 100 years. The business is not for sale; however, the business assets can be purchased if an incoming buyer is interested in using the property for a similar auto repair and sales type use. This corner lot is flat, and the building is in good condition on one level. The building is currently being used as an auto repair garage and is in good condition with an admin office, sales office and a large open work area with 5 grade-level bay doors and 6 vehicle hoists. *Note: The Gurton Family is open and willing to lease back the garage from the new owner, with the intent to give a future developer holding income while they design and get approvals from North Saanich to redevelop the site.
