4853 Gertrude Street

Updated main and upper floors, with the Kitsuksis Walkway a short walk from your door. PEX plumbing, updated wiring, 200-amp service, and vinyl windows leave your time for living here, not renovating. In North Alberni with mountain views, this home has 3 bedrooms, a den, and 2 full bathrooms over two levels. The front yard is fenced with a gate, a real plus for kids and pets, and the backyard is fenced too. The main floor is built around a modern kitchen with stainless appliances, a gas range, shaker cabinetry, and a breakfast bar island that pulls everyone in, whether it’s a weeknight dinner or a slow Saturday morning with the coffee on. A dining area and a bright living room, kept comfortable by a gas furnace and ductless heat pump, sit alongside a den, a bedroom, and a full bathroom. Settle into the living room with a view out the window, or turn the den into a home office or guest space. Upstairs is more private, with a spacious primary bedroom, a second bedroom with a walk-in closet, and another full bathroom. The unfinished lower level holds the laundry and plenty of storage for seasonal gear, tools, and hobbies. The backyard is made for using. Fire up the gas BBQ hookup on the deck, pick vegetables from the raised garden beds, keep the tools in one of two garden sheds, and cool off in the above-ground pool when the weather turns warm. Laneway access comes with a vehicle gate wide enough for a boat or utility trailer. Then there’s the neighbourhood. Stroll the Kitsuksis Walkway in the evening, follow the Quay to Quay path, take the dog to the park, or walk to dinner and pick up groceries on the way home. Add good neighbours, and it’s an easy place to put down roots. Reach out any time to arrange your private viewing.
