This charming 3 bed, 2 bath main level entry character home, built in 1938, blends timeless charm with modern updates — hardwood floors, exposed brick, concrete countertops, newer windows, and updated bathrooms. The lower level is a City of Nanaimo-approved licensed Airbnbwith its own entrance, French doors, and shared laundry — equally perfect as a student accommodation or guest suite. Outside, a large deck overlooks a landscaped backyard oasis with hot tub, firepit, and a garden shed retreat perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The detached shop with 200 amp service and lane access is a dream for the hobbyist or tradesperson — and with plumbing it converts seamlessly into a carriage house, adding serious long-term value. Close to VIU, shopping, recreation, and transit, this property delivers character, flexibility, and lifestyle in one of Nanaimo's most convenient locations.
