DESCRIPTION
Updated Parksville Rancher with Detached Garage and Suite Potential!

A perfect family retreat or an ideal retirement haven for couples with all the toys! Don’t miss this spacious, elegant, and beautifully updated 2168 sqft Rancher with 3 Beds+Flex Room (or 4th Bed) and 2 Baths, on a nicely landscaped .27-acre corner lot. With two driveways—including a gated second driveway off Strawberry Crescent for RV/boat parking—this property stands out with both a larger lot and a more spacious layout than most other Ranchers currently on the market.

The lovingly maintained home boasts picture windows and three skylights, an updated Kitchen and beautifully refreshed Baths, a south-facing backyard with a firepit and garden area, and a detached Garage that offers potential for a Secondary Dwelling or In-Law Suite. Ideally located on a quiet street in “Uplands,” just beyond the downtown core and close to walking trails, shopping, amenities, and the beach.

From the skylighted foyer, elegant French doors open to a sizable Living Room with an overheight vaulted ceiling, a large picture window, and a two-sided natural gas fireplace that provides a cozy focal point and a wonderful spot to unwind. The fireplace is shared with the adjacent Kitchen/Dining Room, where its gentle glow enhances your everyday meals.

The bright Contemporary Kitchen offers recent enhancements completed in the last month, including new quartz countertops, replaced doors on the shaker-style cabinetry, a new sink, tap, and porcelain tile backsplash, plus a newly added hot water on-demand system. Stainless steel appliances include a ‘GE Profile’ natural gas stove, ‘Bosch’ dishwasher, and a new ‘Kitchen Aid’ fridge (2025), all complemented by a skylighted Breakfast Nook for casual dining.

From the generously sized Dining Room, French doors open to an extended patio, perfectly covered for all-weather enjoyment. The fully fenced, south-facing backyard features lovely gardens, mature trees, a delightful firepit area, and some grass for kids or four-legged family members to play on. At the side of the home, you’ll find a parking pad for a boat or RV, and a sunny garden area with raised boxes that is perfect for growing fresh veggies and herbs.

Stepping back inside, you’ll find a large Primary Bedroom Suite with crown molding, a cozy walk-in closet, and an updated 3-pc ensuite with a shower and linen closet. There are also two additional Bedrooms offering space for family, guests, or hobbies, in addition to a skylighted 4-pc Main Bathroom with tile flooring and a tub/shower combo. In the last month, both Baths have been repainted and updated with quartz-topped vanities featuring new cabinet doors, along with brand-new sinks and plumbing fixtures.

Completing the layout is a Laundry Room with an ‘LG’ stacking washer and dryer, and a huge, private Rec/Family Room with brand-new carpeting, a built-in desk, an exterior door, and large windows including an extended bay window with a window seat. This versatile space could serve as a Games Room, a Kids’ Playroom, or even a 4th Bedroom—whatever your heart desires.

Just steps away from the home is a detached 810 sqft Garage/Workshop with 60-amp service, extensive cabinetry, and room for two cars. There’s also exciting potential to use the space to create a Secondary Suite for in-laws or extended family, or even run a home-based business —RS-1 Residential zoning allows for both.

Recent renovations (completed in the last month) include updated light fixtures, fresh interior and exterior trim paint touch-ups, plus a repainted Kitchen ceiling and Laundry Room. Additional features include a central vacuum system, a new heat pump and attic ducting (2025), and a heat exchanger system. In addition, the roof was repaired and the flashing upgraded four years ago.

This superb location is truly next to none! At the end of the street you'll find Parksville wetlands with accessible walking paths through forests and bogs. A nice off-leash dog park is nearby, and you’re just minutes from all the conveniences of downtown Parksville. Enjoy easy access to several golf courses, scenic walking trails, and the charming Village Center in Qualicum Beach, or take a short drive to North Nanaimo for big box stores and numerous shopping centers.

Everything has been done for you already—simply move in and start enjoying the next fabulous chapter of your life in a home you can truly love. Don’t miss this one!
