Set on a quiet street, this inviting rancher offers a thoughtful balance of space, utility, and nature, with the ease of single level living plus a detached 23 x 26 insulated workshop. All of it sits just minutes from Port Alberni shops, parks, and everyday essentials. Inside, the living room is designed for relaxed, easy connection. A brick feature wall with an electric fireplace adds warmth and character, while the large bay window draws in natural light and peaceful views of the street and trees. Homes work best when everyday life has room to breathe. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with generous cabinetry, an eating area, and extra pantry storage. Down the hall are two comfortable bedrooms, a refreshed full bathroom, laundry room, mudroom, and access to a surprisingly spacious attic that adds practical storage for growing households. Out back, the fully fenced yard turns daily routines into small rituals. Whether you are gathering around the fire pit, enjoying a quiet moment under the covered patio, or tending the raised garden beds, there is space to shape the outdoor life you want. Think of the workshop as your flex room, just in the yard instead of above the garage. With two vehicle gates, laneway access, and room for RV or boat parking, the layout supports everything from hobbies to weekend adventures. Efficient natural gas heating and hot water on demand help keep things comfortable and cost aware. Nature is close at hand, with the forest and River Rd Park about a five minute walk from your door, and schools, restaurants, trails, and recreation only a short drive away. Reach out whenever you're ready to arrange a private viewing.
