This home is rare for two reasons: it's a four bedroom rancher; and it's a huge 0.42 acre city lot. Neither is easy to find in Port Alberni, and together they're nearly unheard of. The home sits up on a small rise, with three fir trees out front tall enough to give the place a sense of occasion. A skylit entrance opens to a living room with a tile-faced fireplace, plus a formal dining room. The open concept kitchen has a movable island and its own skylight, & spills into a breakfast nook with bay windows facing the stone wall and trees - the spot that quietly becomes where you eat every meal. The family room, with feature wood stove and brick hearth, opens through sliding doors to a large exposed aggregate patio. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet & three piece ensuite. Three more large bedrooms and a main bath with tiled tub-shower round out the home. The tiled laundry room connects to the double garage. Two owners, custom built, and maintained the way that implies: luxury vinyl plank flooring and hot water tank in 2025, fresh paint inside and out, heat pump for efficient heating and cooling, quality vinyl thermal windows, crawl space for storage. The backyard is what people will remember. Fully fenced in 6' cedar and built on two levels, patio and lawn at house level, then an upper terrace above a stone retaining wall. Evergreens and beautiful deciduous trees along the back boundary were planted for privacy and have grown into it. The hot tub sits under a gazebo behind its own cedar screen. Long-term potential too: a 33' lot could likely easily be subdivided off the south side and still leave a large backyard, or be used to build a secondary dwelling. There is the potential for three lots in total. Buyers to confirm feasibility with the City of Port Alberni. The street stays quiet because nothing passes through it. Forest trails two blocks away, groceries a short drive, and neighbours who know each other's names. Call to arrange your private viewing.
