DESCRIPTION
Exquisite Nanoose Bay Oceanview Residence!

Fabulously located on Nanoose Bay's premier seaside route, Dolphin Drive, you will find this bright and very spacious 2814 sqft 3 Bed plus Den/Office/3 Bath Custom-Built Home on an elevated .37 acre lot offering a sweeping perspective of views over beautiful evergreen forest, coastal Islands reaching 30 kms across the picturesque Strait of Georgia to Halfmoon Bay and the distant mainland mountain range!

Presented for the first time to the market, this captivating owner/contractor built home boasts superb updates with day-to-day living spaces on the upper level, a fully-finished ground level that is perfect for hosting guests with an abundance of private deck space, picture windows showcasing unparalleled views, and a beautiful forested setting that feels like you are miles from the hustle-and-bustle of a city centre; Yet, you are only 20 minutes from Parksville and North Nanaimo for great shopping and amenities!

A newly constructed cement driveway curves up to a parking area, where stone steps welcome you through a covered over height porch into a spacious foyer with slate flooring and huge windows. A wood staircase brings you to the upper level where you will find a sizable Great Room that encompasses the Kitchen, a large Living Room, and a generous semi-formal Dining Area. Exotic Jatoba hardwood flooring flows throughout the space, and a breathtaking panorama of picture windows creates a feeling of airy openness while framing far-reaching images of the coastline.

The Deluxe Kitchen comes complete with ample shaker-style wood cabinetry, recessed lighting, an extended walk-in pantry, newly installed quartz countertops, and quality stainless steel appliances including an electric stove with a 5- burner gas cooktop and a pot filler above plus a replaced "LG" dishwasher merely 3 years young! In addition, there is an extensive island with a breakfast bar that defines the Kitchen area while allowing the cook to enjoy views while preparing dinner.

From the Breakfast Nook, a glass door opens to a 466 sqft glass-railed deck that wraps around the front of the home and offers dynamic views of the forest, the ocean, and the wide-open blue sky. To your left is peaceful Dorcas Point, to the right are the Yeo Islands, and before you is a jaw- dropping vista that reaches over Gerald, Amelia, and Douglas Islands, sweeps past Lasqueti and Texada Islands, and traverses the Georgia Strait to the distant mainland. Take a moment to breathe the fresh ocean air, savor the rich evergreen aroma, and watch as gulls and eagles soar high overhead - this superb outdoor living space is optimized for relaxation, and nothing says "Zen" quite like being embraced by nature!

Stepping back inside you will find a sizable Primary Bedroom Suite with a paneled feature wall adding a note of elegance, a walk-in closet, and sumptuous bamboo flooring that flows into a large 5 pc ensuite with a soaker tub, a water closet, and an extended walk-in shower with travertine tiling. A door offers handy access to the Laundry Room with an "LG Tromm" washer and dryer, shelving, and a countertop for folding. Completing the upper level is 2 pc Powder Room.

The 1154 sqft ground level of the home is quite simply a dream come true for those with youngsters or when hosting family and friends during their visits! Off the foyer is a cozy Den/Office that is ideal for working from home, while a hallway with maple flooring opens to a separate section of the home that could function as a Guest Wing. Here you will find two spacious Bedrooms (one with views) that share "Jack-&-Jill" access to a 3 pc Bath with a shower. Completing the ground level is a 440 sqft Double Garage with 200-amp service, and a Furnace/Utility Room with a "Nordyne"forced-air furnace.

Nearby is a door leading out to a 598 sqft lower deck with a covered section for year-round enjoyment, an arbored BBQ area, plus a fabulous entertaining area boasting southern exposure and a sun-soaked backyard with lovely plantings, a palm tree, ferns and a backdrop of towering evergreens that seem to reach up to the sky!

Among the amazing extras and updates you will find pine doors throughout the upper level, a replaced "Rheem" 60-gallon hot water tank (2022), an efficient "BIONEST" septic system with four runs, and dual propane tanks plus a tank storage area. There is also a new "RUUD" Heat Pump (2022) providing economical warmth in the winter and cool air conditioning in the summer, upgraded toilets in all Baths (2022), and the exterior cedar shingles have been re-stained just 2 years ago.

Tucked away in the forest behind the home is Fairwinds huge walking trail system that winds around Enos and Dolphin Lakes, and it is a short walk to beach access off nearby Bonito Crescent or Park Place Community Park. You are just minutes away from Fairwinds Landing with the Nanoose Bay Cafe and a Marina, Fairwinds 18-hole golf course with its clubhouse and restaurant, the Red Gap Shopping Center with its Quality Foods and Cascadia Liquor stores, and numerous beautiful parks including Moorecroft Regional Park, Brickyard Bay Oceanfront Park, and Notch Hill!

This lovely piece of paradise is the perfect place to experience all the peace of paradise - book your viewing today!
