Attention young families, retirees, developers, and builders! Just a 4-minute walk from the beach, you'll find this inspiring property offering a well constructed 1428 sqft 3 Bed/2 Bath Rancher on a beautiful .62-acre parcel embraced by mature plantings and towering trees.

Ready to begin its next chapter, this retro- charming home features a skylight and large windows for abundant natural light, an easy-care one-level layout, a good-sized Storage Room/Workshop, and a huge park-like backyard with a seasonal creek running through part of the property.

Add your personal touches and make this a wonderful family or retirement home, with plenty of outdoor space for hosting gatherings while the land value continues to grow. Alternatively, refresh the home and rent it out as an income generator until you’re ready to build, or live comfortably on-site while planning your future Custom Home with a detached shop or garage.

Zoned RS-1, the property offers potential for an in-law suite or secondary dwelling. There's also the option of purchasing the adjacent Lot 9 (MLS #1029548) to create a large estate and build one or two dream homes! Ideally located just a short walk to the beach and only minutes from golf courses, a marina, and all the shops and amenities of Parksville and Qualicum Beach, this is a versatile opportunity you won’t want to miss.

The home’s west-facing front yard and entry invite creativity, with ample space to add privacy hedging, a sundeck or patio, and gardens—perfect for landscaping to suit your vision. The decorative glass front door with sidelight opens to a foyer.

The Living Room to the left features a large window that fills the space with warm western sunshine, plus a traditional red brick-surround fireplace, now updated with a natural gas insert, re-done chimney, and replaced venting (2022). The vaulted, over-height ceiling with exposed beams flows seamlessly into the adjacent Kitchen and Dining Room.

The Dining Room features a west-facing picture window, filling the space with natural light and warm afternoon sun. The skylighted 3-piece Kitchen, complete with fridge, stove, and dishwasher, offers ample wood cabinetry, generous counter space, durable laminate flooring, and a convenient door to the double carport, making unloading groceries a breeze.

Step outside to a large 200 sqft covered deck with translucent panels that let in plenty of natural light, overlooking a huge park-like backyard. There’s plenty of grassy space for kids and furry family members to play, a charming wishing well, and a picturesque backdrop of tall evergreens. The expansive yard offers endless possibilities to expand, with room for a deck, BBQ hut, hot tub gazebo, greenhouse, and garden area.

Back inside, the Primary Bedroom features dual double closets, while two additional Bedrooms provide space for kids, guests, or hobbies. A 4- piece Bathroom with tub/shower combo serves the main living areas, and the good-sized Storage Room/Workshop includes a convenient 2-piece Bath and a recently replaced washer and dryer (2024).

Much-loved over the years, this fir wood frame construction Home has been maintained by the current owners. The roof and gutters have been cleaned, a small bridge across the seasonal creek has been replaced, and recent exterior maintenance includes a new seal on the skylight, various repairs, and exterior painting—all completed in 2025.

Add to this a great location in peaceful French Creek. It’s just a short 4-minute walk to a beautiful beach with picnic tables, as well as nearby Eaglecrest Golf Course. A short drive takes you to French Creek Marina, where fresh-off-the- boat seafood is available, and to all the shops and services of downtown Parksville, plus the Euro-charming boutique shops of Qualicum Beach’s Village Center. Easy access to the Island Highway puts the massive North Nanaimo shopping district within a half-hour’s drive, making this location both convenient and highly desirable.

Tons of potential and an amazing location—all together in one fabulous package. Don’t miss out!
