It’s rare to find a chunk of land up for sale near downtown Victoria, but if you’ve been dreaming of creating a standout addition to the city’s urban landscape, this is your opportunity.
Situated just southeast of downtown, a rare parcel of land at 931 McClure Street in Fairfield is now available. This prime location puts you steps away from the bustling Cook Street Village and all of what downtown has to offer.
The property’s R-103 zoning allows for multi-unit residential buildings up to four storeys tall. Its designation as “Urban Residential” in both the City of Victoria’s Official Community Plan (OCP) and the Fairfield Neighbourhood Plan also provides potential for a range of development options.
These plans support low to midrise developments, potentially allowing for buildings up to six storeys.
This flexibility makes the land suitable for a variety of housing projects, including those aimed at addressing the city’s “missing middle” housing needs.
Missing middle housing refers to medium-density options like townhouses or low-rise apartments, which provide alternatives between single-family homes and large apartment buildings.
For developers or planners with a vision, the property represents a chance to contribute to Victoria’s evolving housing landscape while staying close to its cultural and social heartbeat.
Listed by Austin Cope of Colliers, the nearly 8,000 square foot lot is up for grabs at a cool $1,775,000, ready for someone to give it a fresh start. Keep in mind, yearly property taxes for a land of this size is about $6,872.
931 McClure Street isn’t just a blank slate—it’s a key piece of Victoria’s next chapter. Ready to get started?
