Beautifully renovated ocean-view home with a bright and spacious 2-bedroom suite in the heart of Departure Bay, one of Nanaimo’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. Located just minutes from Departure Bay Beach, parks, walking trails, local cafes, food trucks, the community water park, shopping, and highly regarded schools including Departure Bay Elementary, Cilaire Elementary, and Wellington Secondary. The bright and modern upper level offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area designed to maximize natural light and ocean views. The stunning kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring quartz countertops, a gas range, and a large island perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. Ocean views can be enjoyed from the main living area, expansive deck, secondary deck, backyard, and even the lower suite. The oversized ocean-view deck extends your living space outdoors and provides the perfect setting for dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing while taking in the scenery. Downstairs, the well-finished 2-bedroom suite is far from a typical basement suite. Bright, spacious, and featuring its own private entrance and separate laundry, it offers excellent flexibility as a mortgage helper, guest accommodation, or comfortable space for extended family. Situated on a sunny south-facing 9,600 sq. ft. lot, the backyard offers plenty of room for children, gardening, entertaining, or relaxing around the fire pit sitting area. Mature fruit-bearing plants, including pear, grape, quince, and fig, add character and seasonal enjoyment to this inviting outdoor space. Additional updates include flooring, deck railings, hot water on demand, an updated gas furnace, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, and two large storage sheds. Combining ocean views, income potential, modern upgrades, exceptional outdoor living, and a prime Departure Bay location, this move-in-ready home is a rare opportunity in one of Nanaimo’s most desirable neighbourhoods.
