CBRE Victoria is pleased to present an exceptional investment opportunity in the heart of downtown Victoria at 705–711 Johnson Street. This distinctive three-storey building comprises two ground-floor retail units and 40 single-occupancy residential rooms above, collectively known as the York Hotel. The property offers strong in-place income, near full occupancy, and the benefit of substantial completed upgrades, resulting in minimal ongoing maintenance for a prospective owner. The building totals approximately 17,236 square feet, with 6,900 square feet on the main floor and 5,168 square feet on both the second and third floors, situated on a 7,284-square-foot site. Built in 1911 and zoned CBD-1 (Central Business District), the property allows for a wide range of flexible commercial and mixed-use opportunities. The two ground-floor retail units measure approximately 2,434 square feet at 705 Johnson Street and 4,370 square feet at 707 Johnson Street. The space at 705 Johnson Street is occupied by Board with Friends, a locally owned and operated board game café, while 707 Johnson Street is currently vacant and was purpose-built for a gym, though it can readily accommodate a variety of alternative uses. Both retail units feature impressive 16-foot ceilings, excellent Johnson Street frontage and exposure, private washrooms, and, in the case of 707 Johnson Street, an additional shower amenity. The upper floors house 40 single-occupancy residential units operating as the York Hotel. Each floor is equipped with shared half and full washrooms, as well as a dedicated laundry room. The residential units are currently rented at below-market rates, providing a clear opportunity for future income growth. The building has been well maintained and includes a concrete foundation, a wood joist roof with an asphalt surface, painted brick exterior, metal doorways, and double-glazed thermo-sealed windows in vinyl frames. Flooring varies throughout the building, with a mix of hardwood, laminate, tile, and carpet depending on the unit, and the electrical system is supported by a 600-amp, three-phase service. Notable building highlights include an upgraded roof completed in 2017, full sprinkler coverage throughout, recent updates to 11 of the single-occupancy units, and a new HVAC and heat pump system serving the commercial space. The property benefits from its central downtown location with excellent exposure along Johnson Street, direct proximity to transit, and an abundance of nearby parking options, including the Johnson Street Parkade. Offered for the first time on the market, this asset presents a compelling opportunity to acquire a well-located, income-producing property with long-term upside in one of Victoria’s most vibrant urban corridors.
