What's special

Rare 1.96-acre opportunity in the heart of Nanaimo’s growing Harewood neighbourhood. Ideally positioned with dual access from Bruce Avenue and Alpen Way, this property offers strong development potential in an area identified for increased residential density under the Harewood Neighbourhood Plan. The plan supports a mix of housing forms including multi-family, townhomes, and infill development (buyer to verify with the City of Nanaimo). Currently zoned R1, the property includes an existing 4-bedroom, 1-bath home plus a separate cabin, offering holding income or flexible living. A detached garage adds further utility. Located in a rapidly developing area just minutes to amenities, the property also backs onto approximately 5 acres of City-owned parkland, enhancing privacy and long-term appeal. A unique opportunity to secure a large parcel with future potential in one of Nanaimo’s evolving communities. Measurements are approximate and should be verified if important.
