Description
Welcome to Pacifica, where downtown living meets Nanaimo’s waterfront. Tucked away on the quiet, landscaped courtyard, CY01 offers a rare combination of privacy, outdoor space & walkability in one of the city’s most recognizable waterfront communities. This spacious 1,160 sq. ft. home features 2 beds & 2 full baths thoughtfully positioned on opposite sides of the condo, ideal for privacy, guests or shared living. Floor to ceiling windows bring in natural light, while the gas fireplace creates a cozy focal point. The kitchen features a gas range & the home has been refreshed with new vinyl plank flooring throughout, fresh paint, a newer dishwasher, 2 heat pumps for efficient heating & cooling, plus a washer & dryer replaced last year. One of only four tower homes opening onto the treed courtyard, CY01 has just one neighbouring unit & an outdoor space that feels worlds away from typical condo living. The covered patio is framed by raised concrete planters & includes a gate, making it a great spot for morning coffee, summer BBQs, gardening or relaxing with your four legged companion. 1 dog or 2 cats allowed with approval! Additional features include custom top down/bottom up shades, some with remote operation, custom window & patio door screens, gas BBQ connection, secure underground parking & storage. Gas & hot water are included in the strata fee. Pacifica offers secured entry, elevators & a landscaped courtyard, all in a steel & concrete waterfront building. Step outside & the Harbourfront Walkway is at your doorstep. Walk to Maffeo Sutton Park, the marina, Port Theatre, Old City Quarter, restaurants, coffee shops, shopping & downtown events. Travelling to Vancouver is remarkably convenient too, with Harbour Air, Hullo & Helijet nearby. Book your showing today (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.
