Na Brechin Hill Nanaimo V9S 4H7

This tastefully maintained Craftsman home is located on a quiet street, with a spectacular ocean view facing Newcastle Island, Protection Island and vibrant Nanaimo Harbour. Immediately in front of the house, along the harbour, is the seawall which takes the stroller from the Nanaimo yacht club to the downtown and inner harbour. On the way is an ocean-side park with a crabbing pier and jetty for the ferry to Newcastle Island. This rare gem, crafted in 1920 by a local architect has fir hardwood floors, hand-made mouldings, railings and built-in cabinets, and comfortably appointed living and dining rooms overlooking the harbour. It has a covered front porch, 2 back decks, and a dbl garage converted to a game room. The back deck has a hot tub overlooking a beautiful garden anchored by a magnolia tree. A grand staircase leads to four comfortable bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, one of which is an ensuite. The gourmet kitchen has granite countertops with stainless steel appliances.
