Leiser Loft on Yates

Experience the charm of Old Town Victoria in this meticulously restored, historic gem – the Leiser Building. Built in 1896, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to the entrepreneurial spirit of British Columbia’s late 19th century. Converted into 34 condominiums in 2011, the Leiser Building offers modern living within a historic treasure.

This state-of-the-art structure reflects the financial prosperity of the Klondike Gold Rush era. Its conservative High Victorian exterior, with its distinctive design elements, speaks to the success of its original owner.

Admire the building’s elegant facade, featuring:

• Bilateral symmetry for a balanced and harmonious appearance
• Richardsonian arched entrance that welcomes you into the building’s rich history.
• Double cornice and central pediment adding grandeur and architectural detail.
• Turrets that add a touch of Victorian charm and verticality.
• Large street front wood windows and a simple fenestration pattern on the upper storeys, allowing for natural light and showcasing the building’s craftsmanship.

Enjoy the unique blend of old-world charm and contemporary comfort in this iconic Victoria landmark. This clean, compact and cozy unit is the perfect “pied a terre” in the most walkable location.
