Victoria's 1403 West is a memorable contemporary, comfortable and quiet executive sanctuary perfect for the mature guest. The newly designed sub-penthouse interior space, with 10-foot high ceilings, complemented by the 450 sq. ft. wraparound outdoor deck provides a very spacious 1,350 sq. feet from which to enjoy Victoria. It is one of the few condos in Victoria with a complete wraparound deck, and 8-foot high wraparound glass “4th wall” windows. Your stunning views start to the north and northeast including Mt. Baker in Washington State. The grand westward views are of the city lights and inner harbours, with Sooke Hills in the distance. The view continues stretching to the south and southwest with the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Watch Victoria’s float planes landing and taking off in the Inner Harbour, while flocks of birds soar by at eye level.
Sip your morning coffee or tea while watching seagulls glide by at eye level. Or enjoy a romantic sunset glass of wine watching the night lights of Victoria come to life from this superb 14th floor vista. Whether you are an early riser watching the sunrise light wake-up Victoria, or you prefer sleeping in, relaxing, and being as leisurely as you like, the views from 1403 West are memorable.
In less than 20 minutes walking, you can be at the walking/running trails along the shoreline of the southern tip of Vancouver Island after passing through Beacon Hill Park. In less than 15 minutes, you can walk to all the sights of the Inner Harbour with many the shops and restaurants along the way. In 10 minutes or less you can enjoy historic LoJo, Market Square and Victoria's unique new Johnson Street Bridge. Just over the bridge, with its pedestrian only passageway on its south side, enjoy walking trails along the Inner Harbour.
To add to the comfort of 1403 West, all the blinds are energy efficient, GreenGuard certified, with excellent UV protection and sound absorption properties that helps you stay cooler in the warmer months and warmer in the cooler times of the year. They have easy to use wands that allow the blinds to be drawn up in the traditional manner, from the bottom up.
However, the blinds in 1403 West also feature a top down option. So, if you want a bit more privacy, but still want a view to the outside, just lower the blinds from the top to whatever height you wish. With two easy motions, they are easier to use than conventional slat blinds with stringy cords. In addition to our concierge showing you how simple they are to properly operate, a handy “How To” user guide is located in the guest services book for your convenience to maximize your comfort during your stay. The bedroom blinds have an additional blackout feature that allows you to keep the room darkened if you choose not to get up at the break of dawn. So, no need to sleep with an eye mask.
Located in the vibrant, and wonderfully walkable downtown Victoria (we have a 100% walkability rating), you are close to all the places people come to Victoria to experience and enjoy. Even though 1403 West has a secure, double-gated parking space just opposite the door to the elevators, you may choose to do more walking than driving to see Victoria.
