Description

Welcome to St. Andrews at French Creek — one of Parksville's most sought-after communities, backing directly onto the acclaimed Morning Star Golf Course. This beautifully staged 2-bed, 2-bath townhome offers 1,686 sq.ft. of single-level living at its finest. Step through the skylit foyer into a dramatic main living area with soaring 24-foot vaulted ceilings and west-facing clerestory windows that pour afternoon light deep into the space. A cozy fireplace anchors the room, with flexible space for dining, a lounge, or whatever suits your lifestyle. The bright kitchen features its own skylight and flows naturally into a casual dining or TV area. Come fall and winter, you'll love the in-floor radiant heat throughout — warm, consistent, and remarkably efficient. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and an elegant 5-piece ensuite with double sinks, a soaker tub, and a separate shower. The second bedroom features a cheater door to the main bath — ideal for guests. Outside, a private patio looks directly onto Morning Star's fairways — a peaceful backdrop that makes every morning better. Single garage, in-suite laundry, and a warm, well-managed strata community complete the picture. Ready for a home that matches the lifestyle you've worked hard for? 816 Lakes Boulevard deserves a serious look. (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.
