Description

Welcome to 2446 Divot Drive, a 3-bed 2-bath 1226 sqft rancher in the desirable Departure Bay area of Nanaimo. This is a very central location with ultra-convenience to all levels of schools, beaches, parks, shopping, hospital, ferries, seaplanes, and more. The property is situated on a nearly 8,000 sq ft corner lot that is south-facing, easily accessible, and has plenty of room for an RV! This home is ideal for downsizing, first-time buyers, or long-term hold investors, as the location is premium and the lot is fully usable. The exterior has been well-maintained and includes Cedar Siding, a 10-year-old roof, vinyl windows, and a 250 sqft deck. Upon entry, you'll notice the vaulted ceilings, natural light, easy access, and the ultimate sunroom ( with a gas fireplace ), all done for you. Keep cool in the living room or primary bedroom with ductless heat pumps or cozy up to the fireplace in the winter. The kitchen has newer appliances. The primary bedroom has its own ensuite, and the bathroom has a skylight. There is another 4-piece bathroom and 2 other bedrooms to complete the home. This is a great opportunity to start a new journey in Departure Bay. All measurements are approximate and should be verified if important. (id:63159)

Amenities

How this is calculated

Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.

Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.

Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.
