Step into the timeless elegance of this beautifully maintained 5-bed, 2-bath character home in Nanaimo’s Old City. Restored to preserve its old-world charm, this home showcases hardwood floors, classic wooden windows, a charming 2009 wood-burning cook stove as a faithful reproduction of the 1920s Oval by Hartland, and a fully restored 1927 Hotpoint electric stove oven. Updated bathrooms feature a vintage clawfoot tub, antique cabinetry and wainscotting. Other amenities include a central vac, and a new gas furnace (2023) and hot water tank (2024). The unfinished basement provides ample storage. Relax and watch the world go by on the front veranda, or enjoy the serene setting on the back patio surrounded by mature producing pear, apple and plum trees. The fully fenced yard is a gardener’s dream with garden boxes, two sheds, and lane access with space for RV parking. This rare gem is a must-see for those who appreciate character, craftsmanship, and a connection to Nanaimo’s rich history. (id:55581)
