DESCRIPTION
Adorable Qualicum Beach Custom Rancher!

The fabulous curb appeal of beautiful natural landscaping welcomes you to this bright and spacious 1978 sqft 3 Bed/2 Bath Rancher on a beautifully landscaped .24-acre lot, perfectly located in Qualicum Beach, the prettiest town on the sunny mid-eastern coast of Vancouver Island! This adorable charmer boasts skylights and generous use of glass for brightness, a mix of formal and casual living spaces with elegant detailing, nice extra features, and a lovely park- like yard that will delight gardeners. There is dedicated parking for your boat or RV, and a fantastic location close to walking trails and the Aquatic Center, just minutes away from the Village Center, and Qualicum’s picturesque boardwalk and sandy beach!

From the covered porch, a front door with stylish glass sidelights invites you into a foyer crowned with a large skylight. Beyond the decorative pillars, you will find a delightful open concept Living and Dining Room, ideal for formal entertaining with its gleaming wood flooring and linear electric fireplace, along with extra space for your favorite dining set.

A sliding pocket door opens to the adjacent Kitchen/Family Room, a bright and inviting space that is perfect for casual evenings at home. A skylighted 5-piece Kitchen awaits your culinary adventures, offering lovely wood cabinetry and good counter space, a computer/phone desk, an extended and tiered island with ample storage beneath, and 'Kenmore' stainless steel appliances.

An elegant glass door offers easy access to the foyer, while the Breakfast Nook opens to a lovely exposed aggregate patio and the Double Garage, making for easy unloading of grocery items. The patio offers a peaceful view, looking beyond wooden arbors to a park-like backyard, and is sure to be your new favorite spot for quiet morning coffees, relaxing afternoons with a cool beverage, and romantic al fresco dining.

The patio is also accessible via a sliding glass door in the inviting Family Room, where you will find a corner natural gas fireplace with a mantle for displaying collectibles and family photos, while a ceiling fan overhead circulates cozy heat throughout the room on cooler evenings.

Off the Kitchen is a hallway leading to a sizable Primary Bedroom Suite complete with dual picture windows, a ceiling fan for a pleasant breeze while you sleep, a walk-in closet, and a 3-piece ensuite with sumptuous, heated tile flooring and a large frameless glass shower. Nearby is a Second Bedroom with a double closet, a 4-piece Bath featuring a granite vanity with an artistic vessel sink, and a versatile Third Bedroom that could serve various purposes depending on your needs—whether it be a Home Office, a Hobby or Craft Room, a Den, or a Media Room. Completing the layout is a glass door opening to a generous Laundry Room with a 'Samsung' washer and dryer, a deep tub sink, shelving, cupboards, and a large linen closet.

The fabulous west-facing backyard is your very own private oasis, offering beautiful, lush garden areas, rhododendrons, established perimeter gardens, and grass for the youngsters and furry family members to play safely, courtesy of full fencing. Various fruit trees, including raspberries, grapes, peach and pear trees, and an espaliered peach tree, wait to offer fresh, healthy snacks. Additionally, there is an area with low-maintenance gravel landscaping that could be a perfectly private outdoor living space, or you could add a patio, hot tub, fire pit area— whatever your heart desires.

Among the extras offered by this captivating home, you'll find a central vacuum system, a sprinkler system, two replaced skylights, E argon windows throughout, leaf filters on the gutters, a replaced hot water tank, and a newer 'Carrier' air conditioning unit for cooling, that is attached to the replaced 'Lennox Furnace' and the control system, allowing you to adjust both at the same time. In addition, 1400 sqft of laminate flooring (with underlay) was added to most of the home in 2021. There is also a Garden Shed for storing outdoor equipment, dedicated RV Parking with an electrical hookup, and a large Double Garage with a good- sized Storage Room and 200-amp service.

The unbeatable location offers all the peace and quiet you desire, yet you are only minutes away from shopping, amenities, and all the services you will ever need! You are within a short stroll of the Ravensong Aquatic Center, a BMX track, a ball diamond, a great off-leash dog park, and the pristine Grandon Creek Walking Trail that winds past majestic trees and connects to a secondary trail leading to the quaint Village Center.

In addition, you’re within minutes of Qualicum’s famous oceanfront promenade and sandy beach, the Heritage Forest, a marina, several great golf courses, and handy access to all three highways that put you within an easy drive of Parksville, North Nanaimo's huge shopping district, the towering ancient forests of Cathedral Grove, and three beautiful lakes for fishing, boating, and swimming!

This charming home is simply beautiful inside and out—don’t miss the opportunity to make it your own!
