Description

An Inspiring 55+ Home, a Rare Price Point, and Just One Block to Rathtrevor Beach! Don't miss this bright and welcoming 965 sqft 2 Bed/1 Bath double-wide manufactured home, located in 55+ 'Parksville MHP' and offering an excellent opportunity for affordable coastal living. It is just a short stroll to the ocean and only mins from downtown Parksville's shopping, dining, and amenities. Ready and waiting to begin its next chapter, this lovely single-level home offers a bright open-concept layout, abundant windows for natural light, ample parking, generous closet and storage space throughout, approximately 470 sqft of combined porch and deck space, plus a sunny, fully fenced backyard for outdoor enjoyment. Some nice updates have been completed over time, but there is still room for your personal touches! A sunny south-facing front yard with mature landscaping, including a graceful weeping birch, hydrangeas, and tall evergreens, creates wonderful curb appeal. A covered porch leads into a bright semi-open Living/Dining Room with updated vinyl plank flooring, south and east-facing windows, and space for a china cabinet. The efficient 3-piece Galley Kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, an electric range, and a newer 'LG' dishwasher. An enclosed porch addition provides laundry facilities, a large Storage Room with built-in shelving, and flexible space for a workshop, hobby room, or crafts. The spacious Primary Bedroom features dual double closets and room for a king-sized bed, while the Second Bedroom is ideal for guests, a home office, or den. Both have updated carpeting, and the 4-piece Bath has been refreshed. Outside, enjoy a private, fully fenced backyard with sunny perimeter gardens and a spacious deck for morning coffee, weekend brunches, or dining under the stars. A newer Garden Shed and a large bonus 'lean-to' storage area with a translucent roof offer excellent space for tools, gardening supplies, and seasonal storage. Visit our website for more info.

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.
