kitchen offers rich wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a large island with seating, stainless-steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry. The adjoining dining area opens onto a spacious east-facing covered patio — perfect for enjoying your morning coffee and the sunrise while relaxing in the hot tub. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a luxurious 5-piece ensuite. Two additional bedrooms (one with cheater-ensuite access), a 2-piece powder room, laundry room with sink and cabinetry, and a separate office complete the thoughtful floor plan. Below, a 1,600 sq ft crawl space spans the entire home, offering exceptional storage and flexibility for seasonal items, workshop use, or hobbies. Comfort is ensured year-round with in-floor radiant heating throughout the home and a heated double garage. Outside, you’ll find sunny open spaces, a tranquil pond with waterfall feature, built-in irrigation, two large cisterns for rainwater harvesting, and an impressive variety of fruit trees and a small vineyard. Zoned T1 under the Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN)—originally intended for tourist or care-home use—the property allows a range of possibilities. Included is a permit for a 30×30 two-storey carriage house with living space and a breezeway, complete with architectural drawings and all required surveys and assessments, ready to transfer to the next owner. A sub-panel with a 30-amp generator plug provides reliable backup power for essentials including the fridge, lights, and fireplace. (id:62650)
