Huge Value in North Nanaimo! Quality upgrades, prime location, great deck & yard. Set on a sunny corner lot in North Nanaimo, this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers nearly 2,400 sq ft of bright, flexible living with a rare combination of substantial recent improvements, family-friendly space and excellent indoor-outdoor living. A major 2025 exterior and mechanical upgrade adds real long-term value: Hardie-plank siding with added R5 insulation, a standing-seam metal roof with engineered air-gap system, new windows, furnace and heat pump. PolyB plumbing replaced in home, and an updated 200 amp panel w/ charge plug in garage. These are the kinds of improvements buyers often hope have already been done, supporting comfort, efficiency and peace of mind for years ahead. Inside, the home feels fresh, bright and move-in ready with wide-plank laminate flooring, updated bathrooms, new lighting and fresh paint. The main level offers a spacious kitchen and dining area, family room, and generous living room highlighted by a striking vaulted feature window. Three bedrooms are on this level, including the primary bedroom with full ensuite. The lower level adds the flexibility today’s households need, with two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, large recreation room, laundry, storage and a welcoming entry. Roughed-in plumbing for a wet bar creates further potential for entertaining, extended-family living or a future suite. Outside, a massive entertainer’s deck, multiple patio areas and private fenced yard create plenty of room for summer dinners, kids, pets, gardening or relaxed Island living. Carriage-home potential adds another layer of future flexibility, subject to buyer verification with the City of Nanaimo. Close to McGirr Elementary, Dover Bay Secondary, Woodgrove Centre, parks, shopping, restaurants and North Nanaimo beaches, this is a versatile, extensively improved home in a location built around everyday convenience. Measurements approximate.
