A storybook setting of towering evergreens provides the perfect backdrop for this spacious, bright and nicely-updated 1724 sqft 3 Bed+Den|Flex Room/2 Bath Executive Rancher on a large and fully-fenced .46 acre lot just a short stroll away from the beach, the Englishman River Estuary, and Rathtrevor Beach Provincial Park.

Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Parksville for shopping and amenities, this captivating home boasts spacious main living areas, lots of room for your family or out-of-town guests, an enormous backyard with lovely sitting and playing areas, parking for your RV or boat, and a private location in desirable San Pareil with a lovely community park behind, and park access between the house and the neighboring home.

A front door with patterned glass inserts and sidelights welcomes you into a sizable open plan Living/Dining room sporting stylish crown molding, luxury vinyl-plank flooring, a huge bay window, and a handsome floor-to-ceiling rock feature with a natural gas fireplace that adds a touch of class to the room while providing cozy warmth on those cooler Fall evenings.

Adjacent is an open concept Kitchen/Family Room where you're sure to spend countless hours cooking, eating, socializing, and relaxing! The exceptional Kitchen boasts quality stainless steel appliances, an on-trend subway tile backsplash, delightful corner windows above the sink, lots of custom cabinetry extending up to ceiling, a wall of custom oversized cupboards surrounding a coffee station, and a handy breakfast bar for your morning meals and quick on-the-go snacks.

The generously-sized Family Room comes complete with picture windows looking onto the picturesque backyard, a lighted ceiling fan for air circulation, and a sliding glass door that opens to a covered deck that extends around the back of home to a huge Entertainer's Deck...perfectly suited to quiet afternoons of relaxation, memorable summer barbecues, and wonderful evenings of entertaining.

Off the Living/Dining Room is a hallway with a sun-tunnel hosting a generous Primary Bedroom Suite with a double closet and a 3 pc ensuite with a shower, as well as 2 good-sized Bedrooms both with crown molding (one with a walk-in closet), and a 3 pc Main Bath with a large shower and tile flooring. Completing the layout is a Laundry Room with cupboards and a deep sink, a sizable Storage/Mud Room with built-in shelves, a double closet, a second fridge and freezer, and an adjacent Office/Den/Flex Space with triple vertical feature windows and tons of privacy!

The expansive and southwest-facing backyard hosts various sitting areas including a gazebo and a firepit, lovely gardens and a Garden Shed, and more than enough grass for a game of family Frisbee or croquet. Full-fencing allows the youngsters and your four-legged family members to run and play safely, there are apple and pear trees for fresh healthy snacking, and there's a gate at the back that leads to a Community Park beyond.

Among the extra features you'll find energy- friendly thermal windows (some with "Hunter Douglas" blinds), a redone septic system and field (2018), a replaced hot water tank (2017), a good- sized storage area for your kayaks and canoes, a dedicated parking spot for your boat or RV, and additional parking on the extended driveway.

Add to this an enviable location in San Pareil, a peaceful enclave that offers great access to a multitude of outdoor activities! The quiet streets are ideal for walking or cycling, and it's an easy 10-minute walk to Shorewood Drive where you can access a beautiful beach for an afternoon picnic or launch your kayak and explore the rugged coastline of mid-eastern Vancouver Island!

You're only an 8-minute stroll away from a trail leading to the sandy beaches of Rathtrevor Provincial Park for warm-water swimming, and it's an 11-minute walk to the Englishman River Estuary for bird-watching or follow the lovely walking trail along the river into town. You're within a short drive of numerous provincial and regional parks, a marina, and golf at Oceanside’s many fine courses, within 20-minutes of the charming Village Center at Qualicum Beach, and it's a quick 20- minute trip to North Nanaimo’s massive shopping district where you'll find a range of big box stores, restaurants and eateries, and all sorts of services and amenities.

This exquisite home is the perfect place from which to enjoy the peaceful bliss of island living...don't miss out!
