Tucked away in the timeless forestland of mid- eastern Vancouver Island just mins away from downtown Parksville you'll find this picturesque 2.30 acre parcel of land hosting a one-of-a-kind 2808 sqft 3 Bed+Office/Den/2.5 Bath Custom Rancher with an upper-level Bonus Room. This unique home boasts lots of oversized picture windows inviting cheerful natural light indoors, executive finishing that effortlessly combines modern and traditional elements, superb extra features, more storage and parking than you will ever need, and incomparable outdoor living space that makes you feel like you are living at a private 5-star resort all year long!

From a quiet no-thru road, an entry drive leads to a huge parking area with space for all of your vehicles, your RV and your boat. A walkway leads to a pillared porch with an overheight ceiling, while a front door with sidelights and a transom welcomes you into a tiled foyer. Hand-scraped Brazilian Hardwood flooring flows into a stunning Great Room where a generous use of glass visually connects the space to your backyard oasis! The spacious Living Room features an overheight cathedral ceiling with a lighted ceiling fan for air circulation, and a handsome floor-to-ceiling stone column with a gas fireplace...a great focal point for the room that is ready and waiting to bring warmth and ambiance to your evenings of relaxation and entertaining.

The inspiring Chef's Kitchen is a culinary lover's dream-come-true with its abundance of wood cabinetry, sumptuous granite countertops, a large island with an extended breakfast bar, a frosted glass door that opens to a lighted walk-in Pantry, and quality stainless steel appliances including a double wall oven, a replaced fridge and dishwasher (approx 5 years young), and a handy beverage fridge.

From the Dining and Living Rooms, glass doors open to allow your gatherings to spill out to a massive 1680 sqft patio that wraps around a solar-heated salt water swimming pool! This very private retreat offers sun-sational southern exposure, full fencing with decorative upper-panels, lovely brickwork and gardens including a tropical palm tree, and an arbored sundeck with a charming propane fire table and sunscreens for those seeking shade.

In addition there are several areas for relaxing and lounging, a covered area for your BBQ, and exterior speakers connected to the home's built-in sound system that will allow you to play your favorite music. Nothing says "summer" quite like a pool party with your friends and family: adults can enjoy refreshing cocktails and mouth-watering bites, while the youngsters swim, lounge on their pool-floats, or lob a beach ball around in the endless sunshine. It's the perfect place to create summer memories that will last a lifetime!

Stepping back inside you'll find a rustic sliding barn door opening from the Dining Room to a hallway with a peaceful Primary Bedroom Suite sporting a large walk-in closet with built-ins, glass door access to the patio, and a luxurious 5 pc spa ensuite with a dual-sink extended vanity, a stand-alone soaker tub, and a huge glass rainshower. Nearby is a 2 pc Powder Room, a door to a sizable Attached Double Garage, and a large Laundry Room with a sink, cupboards/shelving, and a newly- replaced washer (2022).

From the foyer, french doors open to a delightful Den/Office, while quietly tucked away at the opposite end of the home is a fabulous Guest Wing complete with 2 generously-sized Bedrooms and a 4 pc Bath...your pampered visitors will enjoy so much privacy and comfort, they may never want to leave! A staircase leads to a 487 sqft upper-level Bonus Room with ceiling vaults and lots of windows...great flex space that could serve as a Playroom for the kids, a Yoga Studio, a Hobby Room, or a Media/Rec Room...plumbing is already in place for the addition of a Wet Bar if desired.

Privately tucked away on the acreage is a delightful 1104 sqft 2 Bed/1.5 Bath Carriage House with its own separate driveway, covered porch, and 196 sqft fenced-in back patio...ideal for in-laws or extended family situations. Added 5-6 years ago, this inviting guest accommodation (on a separate electrical meter) boasts a spacious open plan Kitchen/Living/Dining Room with a vaulted overheight ceiling, dual skylights, and a linear gas fireplace. The Kitchen offers a generous amount of cabinetry and full-sized stainless appliances, and completing the layout are 2 good- sized Bedrooms, a 4 pc Bath with a tub/shower combo, a Laundry Room, and an attached Garage.

The sizable acreage also hosts various sitting areas including a firepit area, a garden area with full lattice fencing, and a Garden Shed, but the icing-on-the-cake is surely the massive 1218 sqft Three-Bay Workshop! This fully-insulated workspace boasts an overheight roof and oversized doors, concrete flooring, a built-in workbench, an upper level storage room, and an auto body shop area with a spray booth, an air compressor, and a hoist. In addition, it has its own ductless heat pump for year-round comfort, there's lots of parking available, and highway access is close by.

This amazing home comes with all the bells-and- whistles that you'd expect from a home of this caliber including a replaced 2-stage heat pump (approx 4 years old), an "Echo" hydrogen water filtration system and a high-volume water pressure tank, an irrigation system on a timer, and a built-in vacuum system. The Home and Carriage House both have water softeners, 4 ft heated crawl spaces, and electronic air cleaners on the furnaces, the 80-gallon propane tank is fully owned, and the swimming pool has a replaced liner (2022) as well as new electronics and a salt water generator.
