CHARMING HOME! This inviting 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home combines warmth and functionality in a bright, open layout. The main floor features abundant natural light, wood flooring, a generous living room, a spacious kitchen and dining area along with a large laundry and utility room for added convenience. Upstairs, bamboo laminate and tile flooring complement the three bedrooms and the stylishly renovated bathrooms - which include ceramic tile showers and backsplashes, updated lighting, and newer cabinetry. Electricity costs are at a minimum due to the solar panels on the roof, solar powered hot water and the efficiency of a heat pump. Located in a Courtenay neighbourhood with an excellent walk score, this home is just minutes away by foot to both French and English elementary schools, a middle school, downtown Courtenay, the Puntledge River, and local parks and trails. The corner lot offers surprising semi-privacy thanks to mature hedging and fencing, and the well-designed patio creates a perfect space for entertaining, relaxing, or soaking up the sun. A storage shed adds practicality with extra room for gear and tools. Although considered a duplex, the homes are only connected by a breezeway, ensuring minimal sound transfer between residences.
