Description
Welcome to this inviting 2-bedroom corner unit in an exceptionally convenient central location - an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors alike. Thoughtfully laid out, the home offers a unique sense of balance: when you step inside, the home naturally divides into two distinct wings. To the left, the everyday gathering spaces unfold with a spacious living room flowing seamlessly into the dining area and galley kitchen. To the right, a quieter retreat awaits with two large bedrooms, a full bathroom, and generous in-unit storage that keeps life organized and comfortable. Whether it’s slow mornings with coffee by the window, weeknight dinners shared in the dining area, or quiet evenings curled up in the living room, the layout creates spaces that feel both connected and comfortably defined. As a corner unit, the home enjoys an added sense of openness and privacy, while the nearby laundry room and easy parking access make day-to-day living feel refreshingly simple. Outside, residents can enjoy a beautifully mature landscaped common courtyard, creating a peaceful backdrop to everyday life. The location is equally impressive - steps from the Millstone River and Buttertubs Marsh, and only minutes from Westwood Lake, Bowen Park, Downtown Nanaimo, the Ferry Terminal, Vancouver Island University, NDSS, and the Harbourfront. Practical features add even more value: rentals and pets are allowed, plus the strata fee covers heat, hot water, maintenance, and more. Whether you're searching for your first home, a low-maintenance lifestyle, or a smart investment opportunity, this home offers comfort, convenience, and connection to some of Nanaimo’s most loved amenities. Reach out any time to arrange your private viewing. (id:63159)

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.

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
