| Large Hammond Bay Oceanview Home directly across
from the Georgia Strait!
Don't miss this stunning 3856 sqft 6 Bed/4 Bath Family Home, set on a beautifully landscaped .44- acre semi-waterfront lot, elevated above the street to maximize views and offering the perfect blend of elegant luxury and natural serenity. Beautifully renovated and updated over time, this charming home boasts contemporary fixtures and finishes, a spacious layout with room for everyone, sun tunnels and abundant glass for a cheerful ambiance, two natural gas fireplaces, ample storage, and main-level living along with a finished upper level offering flex space for large or extended families. Enjoy far-reaching views of the Georgia Strait from many rooms, and two large patios plus a lovely park-like yard with mature fruit and nut trees providing fabulous outdoor living space. Ideally located in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood just a short walk to beach access and close to parks, recreation, schools, transit, shops and services in North Nanaimo. A sizable flagstone patio bordered by lovely natural plantings offers views over the neighborhood out to the ocean and a shady spot to relax on those warm Island afternoons, while a pillared entrance invites you into a wide foyer with gleaming wood flooring. To the left is a sunken Formal Living Room featuring a newer natural gas fireplace, replaced just six months ago, and a stunning multi-pane curved bay window that captures views reaching across the Strait of Georgia all the way to Halfmoon Bay and the distant mainland mountains. Off the foyer to the right, the spacious Dining Area features a modern linear chandelier, large windows framing scenic views, glass French doors opening to the front patio, and wood flooring that flows seamlessly into the open-plan Kitchen/Family Room, a bright living space filled with southern sunshine through generous expanses of glass. The Deluxe Kitchen offers an abundance of solid- wood cabinetry, newly added quartz countertops, an indispensable pantry/storage closet, and a zinc- topped island with a breakfast bar, prep sink and 'KitchenAid' induction cooktop with retractable ventilation. Stainless-steel appliances include a newer 'JennAir' French-door refrigerator and double wall ovens, all replaced in 2025. The sunny Breakfast Nook with its bay window is perfect for morning coffee or quick snacks. Adjacent, the Laundry/Mudroom includes a sink, cabinetry, newer washer, exterior access to the backyard and fabulous built-in wall storage with upper cabinets, open locker/coat storage and lower storage. A nearby 3-pc Bath with shower and sun tunnel adds further convenience. The generous Family Room hosts a floor-to-ceiling stone-surround natural gas fireplace, with a ceiling fan overhead to circulate the cozy heat in the cooler months and offer a refreshing breeze in the summer. Glass French doors open to a huge south-facing patio, also accessible from the Breakfast Nook—a sun worshiper's dream come true and an oasis-like retreat that offers more than enough space for larger gatherings of family and friends. The spacious lower level hosts an inviting hot tub and looks onto a very private, fully fenced backyard with beautiful brickwork, natural gardens, colorful plantings and towering evergreens. A 214 sqft Garden Shed offers the potential for a small Workshop, while rock steps lead to an upper yard with mature fruit trees and bushes, including golden plum, cherry, apple and fig, plus a hazelnut tree. A generous grassy area gives youngsters and furry family members room to play. The sizable main-level Primary Bedroom Suite offers patio and hot tub access, radiant hot-water flooring, and large south-facing windows bathing the room in natural light. Dual double closets provide excellent storage, while the charming 5-pc ensuite evokes the feel of a boutique hotel with a dual-sink vanity, water closet, soaker tub and separate shower. Nearby, two additional Bedrooms are complemented by a stylish 3-pc Main Bath with a sun tunnel, a framed picture mirror matching the wood cabinetry, and a custom walk-in shower with a glass door, exquisite stone tile and decorative accents. A staircase leads to the upper level with 9-ft ceilings, where a landing hosts a charming Alcove/Reading Nook with a window seat capturing the best ocean views, and a Rec Room enjoying abundant sunshine through a large picture window. Off the landing are three good-sized Bedrooms with wood flooring; two showcase ocean views, while the third offers a sunny garden view. One ocean-view Bedroom features a large bay window and walk- through closet with cheater access to the 5-pc Upper Bath with 'his-and-hers' vanities, dual water closets and a large shower. This flexible upper-level space offers plenty of room for larger or extended families, fabulous guest quarters, or a private space for youngsters to call their own. A major renovation completed approximately 16–17 years ago updated the home, which boasts radiant hot-water flooring in all upper Bedrooms (each with individual controls), a replaced roof, a central vacuum, custom light fixtures, select casement windows for refreshing ocean breezes, and a Double Garage plus extra parking on the extended driveway. Ideally located just a 7-minute stroll from the Fillinger-Bayshore Viewpoint stairway to the ocean and within walking distance of Sealand Park's beach access. Several nearby parks offer children's playgrounds, Frank J. Ney Elementary is a 7-minute bike ride away, Dover Bay Secondary is 12 minutes by bike, and the #20-Hammond Bay bus line is a 12-minute walk away, providing access to VIU, Rotary Skate Park, Woodgrove Center and downtown Nanaimo.
