Imagine your very own private and secluded cottage home, nestled in a fully fenced garden oasis. This charming 2-bed, 1-bath home sits on a spacious .4-acre (17,424 sq ft.) lot, surrounded by lush greenery, fruit trees, and garden areas. Enjoy relaxing on the tranquil patios, or take advantage of the multiple sheds for storage or hobbies. An added bonus is the detached office, complete with a Murphy bed and partially installed 3-piece bath—with great potential for use as a guest suite or third bedroom when needed. The property also features a 19'5" x 11'4" garage, ideal for parking or transforming into your dream workshop. Over the years, the home has seen several thoughtful upgrades, including newer kitchen appliances, flooring, windows, window coverings, trim, and a durable metal roof. Located just minutes from Nanoose Bay shopping and a short drive to Parksville and Nanaimo, this home offers both convenience and privacy. Enjoy nearby parks and hiking trails while still being close to schools and other amenities. Could this charming, peaceful retreat be your next home? Come see for yourself!
