Waterfront Home Departure Bay. 30 day minimum.

Comfortable family home on waterfront acreage providing the peace of semi-rural living while still close to downtown Nanaimo. Ideal for a family vacation, a home between homes, small group retreat or if working at Pacific Biological Station. The space Charming older family home on south-facing Departure Bay waterfront acreage set amongst garry oaks, arbutus and fir trees bordering a semi-wild garden and abundant native vegetation. This is our family home for over 60 years; well lived-in and much loved. You can expect comfort, but not luxury. 4 bedrooms with lots of extra sleeping space. Large living room, dining room, den, sunporch and deck. 2 bathrooms (both recently renovated) and kitchen. Wood burning fireplace. Some pets acceptable. Guest access Guests will have access to the whole house (except for a back storage area), and yard. Beach access requires sure-footedness even though the deer have made well-worn paths, bit steep and rough...easy for kids, challenging for older adults, but well worth it!
