Guaranteed you will fall in love with this adorable 1312 sqft 3 Bed/1 Bath Rancher, privately tucked away on a beautiful .61-acre park-like lot. Lovingly maintained and updated over the years, the home offers a spacious, easy-care layout, a generous use of glass for brightness, and a beautiful fully fenced yard with a firepit and sun-soaked garden area to grow herbs and veggies.

There are several outbuildings, including a large detached workshop. Ample parking is available, and the prime location tucked away in one of Oceanside's most desirable neighborhoods puts you just a short stroll away from the beach, and minutes from several parks and all the shopping and amenities of Parksville. From the moment you arrive, you'll know that you've found something very special!

An entry drive through towering evergreens leads to a huge parking area, setting the stage for this inviting home. The front door, finished with carved wood panels, leads inside where easy-care wood-finish laminate flooring flows into a generously sized Living Room. A natural gas stove provides instant warmth at the flip of a switch, offering real flames and a cozy focal point for the space, while a nearby ceiling fan helps circulate heat on cooler evenings.

A well-planned and updated 4-piece Kitchen features ample white cabinetry with oversized storage cupboards and a handy pantry closet. The appliance package includes a full LG natural gas range and a newer Bosch dishwasher, while inset lighting adds a clean, modern finish and enhances this functional workspace.

The Dining Room features a large picture window and a sliding glass door opening to a huge covered deck with translucent panels—perfect for creating an outdoor living room and adding a BBQ. This deck looks onto a sprawling park-like backyard, accessible through double gates and hosting lovely gardens of natural plantings, a powered storage shed with a covered wood storage area, and a firepit area inviting you to enjoy casual drinks with friends, roast marshmallows, or simply relax by the flames.

A hallway off the Kitchen leads to a Primary Bedroom with both double and single closets for excellent storage. Nearby is a Second Bedroom, along with a convenient Laundry Room with a Kenmore washer and dryer, built-in cupboards, and access to the 4-piece Bathroom with a tub and shower combo. On the opposite side of the home, you'll find a Third Bedroom offering comfortable separation for family or guests.

Just steps from the home, you'll find a fabulous detached and powered Workshop, offering a redone roof, a locking metal gate for security, and a compressor connection line—a true dream for woodworkers, mechanics, or a home handy person.

Beyond the workshop, a sun-soaked garden area awaits, complete with irrigation on a timer using drip and micro-sprayer systems. There are seven raised beds for growing fresh organic vegetables and herbs, along with perennial plantings, raspberries, and blueberries. A small shed offers additional storage, while a nearby horseshoe pit adds a fun touch.

Additional features include two 1,000-litre rainwater collection tanks. Notable updates completed in 2018 include replaced floors and ceilings, new pot lighting throughout, upgraded insulation, and a full interior repaint, creating a fresh, modern feel.

The best feature of all is the superb location. A short walk leads you down a trail from Madrona Drive to the beach, with easy access to Madrona Point for beachcombing, scuba diving, kayaking, or simply enjoying sweeping views of the Strait of Georgia, Gulf Islands, and distant snow-capped mountains.

Just minutes away are Beachcomber Marina and popular parks, including Rathtrevor Provincial Park and Beachcomber Regional Park. You’re also only a 10-minute drive to Parksville, close to excellent golf courses, and within 20 minutes of both Qualicum Beach and North Nanaimo’s extensive shopping district.

An incredible home, an inspiring location, and an irresistible opportunity to live the island dream— book your viewing today!
