Welcome to the Kennedy Effect. Perched in the heart of Nanaimo’s Old City Quarter, this fully renovated 2 bed, 2 bath character home offers spectacular views of downtown, the harbour, the open ocean to the Sunshine Coast, and the coastal mountains beyond. Loaded with value and future equity potential, this home blends charm, lifestyle, and opportunity. The curb appeal is undeniable - one of the coziest character homes on the street, lovingly updated and well maintained. Enter through the low-maintenance patio into a bright, open-concept main floor where large windows immediately frame breathtaking views and flood the space with natural light. A flexible main-floor room works beautifully as a bedroom, den, office, or practitioner space. The luxurious 4-piece bathroom features both a walk-in shower and a clawfoot tub. The cozy kitchen is ideal for intimate gatherings and flows seamlessly onto a generous deck - perfect for entertaining, barbecues, watching ferries and fishing boats, cruise ships bound for Alaska, foggy harbour mornings, and glowing coastal sunsets. Upstairs is thoughtfully designed as a primary suite or family retreat, complete with walk-through open closet, ample storage, and a spacious bathroom with double sinks, shower, and plenty of room to unwind - all with the same iconic views. The fully finished lower level offers a creative blank slate. With slightly lower ceiling height, it has served as a children’s room and teen retreat and is ideal for a studio, yoga space, gathering room, or future bachelor suite with separate entrance. A massive garage accommodates multiple vehicles, workshop space, gear, and storage, and is separately wired—ideal for conversion to a garage suite or studio. With lane access, ample parking, and R14 Downtown Residential zoning, options include a laneway home or modular extension. Located across from the Williston Oceanview development, this is a rare opportunity in a rapidly evolving neighbourhood. (id:45055)
