Perched in a sought after North Nanaimo neighbourhood, this custom built West Coast home captures stunning ocean and mountain views through large windows and vaulted ceilings that fill the main living spaces with natural light. The open living and dining areas feature a striking stone fireplace and flow seamlessly onto spacious view decks, while the spacious primary bedroom enjoys its own private deck access to take in the scenery. Set on a nearly 9000 sqft lot, the home offers a functional layout and a tiered, low maintenance, fully fenced backyard with multiple outdoor levels designed for private outdoor enjoyment. Many updates have been completed over the years, including a newer roof, updated deck vinyl, and newer carpets for added peace of mind. Ideally located just minutes from Neck Point Park, Linley Valley Park and Pipers Lagoon, and a short drive to shopping and everyday amenities, this home offers West Coast living in one of Nanaimo’s most desirable neighbourhoods. Must see!&#xD;
