Description
If you’ve been watching the Nanaimo market for a property that actually makes sense, this is a must-see. It’s rare to find a home at this price point where the "invisible" expensive upgrades—like a 200-amp electrical service, are already handled. This solid 1,600+ sqft home is the perfect canvas for a buyer or investor looking to build sweat equity. Fresh interior paint provides a clean start, while the practical layout offers plenty of room to add your personal touch. The main floor is bright and inviting with 2 large bdrms and an open living area. Downstairs, the in-law suite with its own kitchen and laundry serves as a fantastic mortgage helper for a VIU student. Outside, you’ll find a private, fully fenced yard with a dedicated workshop and convenient alley access for extra parking. The location is prime: a short walk to VIU, Harewood Centennial Park, and Quality Foods, or just 2km to the downtown seawall. Get settled in a growing, vibrant community. Measurements are approximate.
