Land price only. Custom home design and build is priced separately based on your programme.
Created for discerning buyers seeking a professionally guided path to a custom waterfront home in Victoria.
The final oceanfront homesite on King George Terrace, in Canada’s mildest climate, with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean and the Olympic Mountains.
McNeill Pointe is an exclusive, thoughtfully curated subdivision with municipal approvals already in place and a clear, streamlined process from purchase to move-in. This last opportunity secures a coveted Oak Bay oceanfront property while dramatically reducing the time and complexity typically associated with custom home construction.
Perched on a natural rock shelf at the exposed point of King George Terrace, the lot sits roughly 8–10 metres above the high-tide line. The proposed home takes full advantage of morning light from the east over the waterfront and enjoys evening light over the Olympic Mountains. The clifftop site offers no public beach access and provides unobstructed, three-directional views across McNeill Bay, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and the Olympic Mountains.
BoForm has developed a conceptual design for Lot A called “Water’s Edge” — a three-level modern home that responds directly to the dramatic clifftop site, the morning light, and the panoramic views over McNeill Bay. The images shown throughout this site are renderings of this concept. Given the spacious building envelope, there are numerous design options and your home can be built to your own brief.
Conceptual Features
Design Approach
The images and floor plans presented are conceptual, demonstrating a potential vision for the property. Given the spacious building envelope, there are numerous design options. Your home will be designed to your brief.
Lot A stands as a genuinely rare final opportunity — a freehold oceanfront homesite in Oak Bay’s McNeill Bay, widely regarded as one of Victoria’s most coveted coastal addresses. Sites of this calibre have all but disappeared from the market.
Christopher Developments brings a proven local team with deep experience on complex oceanfront sites, paired with BoForm’s Scandinavian-influenced design. Multiple CARE award-winning homes across Greater Victoria — Project of the Year in 2022, 2018, and 2017.
Zoning entitlements are secured and the lot is fully serviced. The process runs in clear phases: design finalisation (~6 months) → construction (18–24 months) → occupancy. Move-in as early as mid-2028.
Whether you’re already in Victoria or purchasing from across the country — or the world — our team provides end-to-end guidance, transparent communication and the expertise to make this a confident, rewarding experience.
“From sunrise coffee over McNeill Bay to evening walks along Beach Drive, living here will feel like a private West Coast retreat minutes from downtown Victoria.”
Golf, marinas, restaurants and village shopping are all nearby, yet your home remains a quiet clifftop retreat with panoramic ocean and mountain views of the Pacific and the Olympic Mountains.
Owners complete design and much of construction while living in other cities. Virtual meetings, detailed progress reporting and a local builder team support a seamless experience for purchasers not yet lucky enough to call Victoria home.
Detailed video consultations at every stage, tailored to your schedule and time zone — wherever in the world you are.
Regular updates, photos and documentation throughout construction, so you’re never left wondering.
Christopher Developments manages day-to-day construction with the same precision and care whether you are present or abroad.
A note for international purchasers: Canada’s federal prohibition on the purchase of residential property by non-Canadians does not apply to raw land or undeveloped lots. McNeill Pointe Lot A is available to qualified purchasers worldwide. We recommend all prospective buyers consult with a Canadian real estate lawyer for independent legal advice.
Minutes from downtown Victoria, Royal Victoria Golf Club, Gonzales Bay, and Oak Bay Marina — yet completely private on its own rocky oceanfront point.
“I highly recommend Christopher Developments if you’re looking to build a quality home with the knowledge that you’re going to get exactly the home you’ve always wanted.”
Ted Kolson · Past Client
Built while living outside Victoria — guided remotely from start to finish.
“Chris Walker is the best overall home builder I have ever worked with. His even keel temperament and work ethic produces great results. I would recommend Chris Walker to friends and associates without reservation.”
Louis Marrero · Past Client
“We’re absolutely thrilled with our new home, and after occupying it for a year now, we love it more and more as time passes. We highly recommend Christopher Developments. You will not be disappointed.”
David Ward · Past Client
“At our first meeting we were impressed and instinctively knew we could trust Chris’s expertise. His knowledge and guidance was genuine — his ability to organise and make our dream home a reality was nothing short of amazing.”
Custom Home Client · Madrona, Victoria
A complex lot with regulation restrictions, completed while the clients were not local.
“Building on a coastal clifftop site is a completely different undertaking from a standard residential build. The structural complexity, the exposure, the access — Chris understood every dimension of it from day one. He’d clearly done this before. The result speaks for itself.”
Past Client · Cadboro Bay, Victoria
Oceanfront cliffside residence completed in under 11 months from design finalisation.
“Our choice of Christopher Developments came after researching two homes near our property, only to find that both had been built by Chris. Living out of province during the planning phase and for the first six months of construction required someone we could trust and communicate with. Chris works with a talented team — highly skilled craftsmen with amazing problem-solving skills and an appreciation of what they are trying to achieve. His attention to detail in every aspect of the build and constantly communicating with us to ensure our wishes were met was so appreciated.”
Anne Judelson · Past Client
