renovators can purchase for land value and update the existing home, or build a dream residence on the acreage with a separate Carriage house for visitors. Developers will immediately recognize the value here: RS-1 Residential zoning, along with the expansive lot size, which allows for subdivision into multiple parcels (verify with the City of Parksville and a surveyor). From the covered front patio, step into an overheight foyer with stairs to the main level and with 2 stair lifts also installed. The open Living/Dining Room features a red brick hearth with wood-burning fireplace and large east-facing windows for morning light. The Kitchen offers abundant wood cabinetry, ample counter space, and a sunny Breakfast Area with sliding door to a 285 sqft west-facing deck overlooking the treed backyard with added southern exposure. Upstairs are a Primary Bedroom with dual double closets, a Second Bedroom, and a 3-piece Bath with tub. The 1146 sqft lower level includes a spacious Family Room with wood-burning fireplace insert, two additional Bedrooms, a 3-piece Bath with shower, a generous Laundry Room with backyard access, and a Workroom with built-in shelving. It’s a 5 minute walk to downtown shopping, as well as the oceanfront boardwalk and Parksville’s beautiful beach. You’re only minutes from grocery stores, eateries, coffee shops, the Community Park and Skate Park, and the Oceanside Health Centre.
