DESCRIPTION
French Creek Family Home with Suite Potential & Views!

Do you seek a spacious home with room for the entire family? The ability to accommodate in-laws or extended family in the future? Somewhere with great and sunny outdoor living space, a nice ocean view, and a convenient location near the sea and close to shopping and amenities? Here is a home that ticks all of those boxes!

This lovingly-maintained 2715 sqft 6 Bed/3 Bath French Creek Home on its sizable .21 acre lot offers day-to-day main level living, a finished walk-out lower level with a Kitchenette that could easily be Suited, skylights and large windows for natural light, a lovely view reaching over the neighborhood to the ocean and distant mainland mountains, and superb outdoor living space including a lower deck/patio area with a delightful 'Swim Spa'. You are just a short walk away from a trail to the ocean, and the terrific location midway between Parksville and Qualicum Beach provides easy access to all of your daily needs and a range of outdoor activities!

A front door with artistic frosted glass inserts welcomes you into the foyer of this West Coast- style Family Home resting in its setting of natural landscaping and dual palm trees. A staircase leads up to the main level and a bright semi-open concept Living/Dining Room with an over height ceiling vault, a delightful wall of windows bringing western sunshine indoors, and a natural gas fireplace with a ceiling fan to circulate the cozy heat.

Updated laminate flooring (3-4 years young) flows into a Dining Room with space for your hutch, an elegant new chandelier, and French doors that open to a huge wrap-around deck that offers the same ocean/mountain views that can also be enjoyed from the Dining Room, the Kitchen and the Breakfast Nook.

You will find lots of granite counter space in the updated Kitchen featuring a huge skylight, shaker- style wood cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances including a five-burner natural gas stove with warming drawer, an 'LG' dishwasher, and a 'Samsung' double-door fridge. Adjacent is a skylighted Breakfast Nook with a glass door that opens directly to the deck for outdoor dining and entertainment.

A hallway hosts a sizable Primary Bedroom Suite sporting a big window with a top-down/bottom-up blind, dual vertical feature windows, a generous walk-in closet, and a cozy 3 pc ensuite with an artistic vessel sink and soaker tub. Completing the upper level are two newly painted Bedrooms and an updated 3 pc Main Bath sporting a new contemporary light fixture, 'Moen' faucets, and a fresh coat of paint.

Off the lower-level foyer is a Guest Room with a walk-in closet that could also serve as a Hobby Room or Home Office, while a hallway leads into a big Family Room with a natural gas stove, replaced carpeting and baseboards, and a new light fixture. A sliding glass door opens to a covered patio with a BBQ hookup, while a second door accesses a fabulous deck/patio area with an added 20 ft 'Swim Spa' ($50,000). Installed in 2021, this pool/hot tub combo is the ultimate backyard aquatic center that is ready to offer your choice of gentle hydrotherapy or a brisk swim.

Off the Family Room is a 2 pc Kitchenette with tile flooring and a room for breakfast table. The natural gas stove could be connected for use, and there's room left to add a fridge if desired. Completing the lower level: a Laundry Room with a deep tub sink and storage cabinets, two good-sized Bedrooms with replaced carpeting, and a 3 pc Bath with a shower.

The fully fenced backyard with its perimeter gardens and garden boxes hosts a brick courtyard with gardens surrounding it, an inviting firepit area, grass for the youngsters and your furry friend to play on, plus apple and plum trees to complement the garden.

Among the extras and updates you will find a replaced hot water tank (2021) and replaced windows (2019), a security system, a central vac system with a replaced canister (2021), and a 551 sqft Double Garage with additional parking on the extended driveway. There is also an under-stair storage area on the lower level, skylights were added, and the roof was replaced (2014) with a 50- year shingle roof, the electrical panel has been upgraded to a 200-amp panel (2022), and the exterior was repainted last year.

Add to this an amazing location in a serene community with a Marina at French Creek Harbor where you can purchase freshly caught seafood right off the boat or visit the local Pub for a cool drink and dinner. It is a quick 6-minute walk to 'Breakwater Village Plaza' with a pharmacy, a bistro/restaurant and 'Sam's Sushi', and you're close to French Creek Landing with a pizzeria, a bakery and a gas station/convenience store.

It is a 7-minute walk to Oceanside Elementary School, and the nearby #88 Parksville transit line goes right past Ballenas Secondary School. You are also within a short drive of several golf courses, Wembley Mall with its huge Save-On-Foods and Canadian Tire Stores, and the skating rinks of the Oceanside Place multiplex facility, as well as Parksville and Qualicum Beach for shopping and services.

Room for everyone and everything, an amazing location, and many great extras - what more could you ask for?
