1285 Englishman River Rd

Attn: Developers, Business Owners Seeking Land, and Those with an Adventurous Spirit! A gated entry drive welcomes you to this truly unique property: a sprawling 5.30-acre parcel of land hosting a 2 Bed+Den/2 Bath Rancher, an unfinished 2nd Home, a couple of rustic old Mobiles for storage, and several outbuildings. Imagine the possibilities offered here: those looking to create their own rural paradise can live in the Rancher while finishing off the much larger 2nd Home for use as a Family Home, developers can live on-site and take advantage of the R1 Rural Zoning that allows a new Primary Home, a Secondary Suite, and several accessory buildings/structures, and business owners could move right into the Rancher and use the 2nd Home as a large Workshop or a home-based Mechanical/Construction Shop - 200 amp electrical is already in place! You are within mins of Parksville and Qualicum Beach for shopping and amenities, beautiful parks, picturesque lakes, and endless outdoor adventures! From a large extended deck, an entry door welcomes you into the Rancher where you will find an updated Eat-In Kitchen with new appliances including a stainless fridge and a stove. Vinyl plank flooring flows into the sizable Living Room with a door to the sunny south-facing front deck, while a hallway off the Kitchen hosts a Primary Bedroom Suite with a door to a 2nd deck and a 4 pc ensuite. Nearby you will find 2 additional Bedrooms, an updated 3 pc Main Bath, and a Laundry Room with a newer washer/dryer waiting to be connected. Dual entry doors access the 2-storey 2nd Home. Construction of the home began in 2003, but was never completed. The main level currently hosts two large framed-in rooms, and the upper level is framed into two large rooms. Dual 200-amp electrical panels are in place but not completely set up, and there is a large attached Storage area. Outbuildings include a Hydro Building and a Pump House. This rare package is sold "As is, Where is", quick possession is possible.
