Enjoy comfort, privacy and easy-care living in Deerwood Estates, North Nanaimo's premier 55+ community. Set on a generous corner lot atop a gentle knoll, this home sits above many homes across the street, with Mt. Benson views and lovely sunsets from its west-facing windows and front porch. The bright two-bedroom-plus-den layout offers space for guests and hobbies, with solid hardwood through most of the home and updated vinyl tile in the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry. Updated appliances, interior paint, a natural gas furnace and air conditioning add everyday comfort, while a gas stove brings warmth to the living room. Enjoy morning light on the expanded covered patio or unwind on the covered front porch, with an electric awning providing summer shade. A fenced yard, easy-care mature landscaping and LeafFilter gutter guards help simplify outdoor upkeep. The single garage includes two good-sized storage rooms, making it easier to downsize without leaving treasured belongings behind.
