If you know Nanaimo, you know the best views come from elevation. This 2008 custom masterpiece by Brad Richardson sits on nearly 30,000 sq ft of waterfront, carved into the landscape so the ocean is the focal point of every room. Experience the "gold standard" of Island living: a main-level entry floor plan w/ open-concept layout, primary suite w/ heated ensuite & 3 gas FPs. The walk-out lower level offers unmatched versatility w/ 2 separate suites (a legal 1-bdrm w/ sep. furnace + a self-contained 2-bdrm space), both w/ private laundry, perfect for multi-gen living or luxury Airbnb. Totaling 5 beds & 3656 sq ft, the pride of ownership is evident in every detail. Outside, a private loop trail winds past signature palm trees to the beachfront, featuring custom benches & a treehouse w/ rooftop deck. Mins from Woodgrove, Neck Point & Pipers Lagoon, this rare coastal sanctuary combines elite quality w/ direct beach access. This isn’t just a home; it’s a grounding legacy property.
