With mountain views and smart updates throughout, this 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom South Alberni home blends space, comfort, and flexibility. The layout includes a fully equipped 2-bedroom in-law suite, perfect for extended family, visiting friends, or added income. Upstairs has been thoughtfully refreshed with new flooring, paint, and modern lighting, creating a warm, welcoming feel from the moment you arrive. The expansive living room features a striking tile-and-stone electric fireplace and a large west-facing picture window - an ideal spot to unwind as the sun sets over the valley. In the kitchen, freshly painted original wood cabinetry pairs with brand-new quartz countertops, a sleek backsplash, and a moveable island that adjusts to your daily rhythm. Just down the hall, the spacious primary bedroom includes dual closets, while two more generously sized bedrooms and a five-piece bath with a dual-sink quartz vanity complete the main level. A bright bonus room (215 sqft) opens onto a covered deck, giving you extra space to relax, a playroom for little ones, or extra entertaining space, rain or shine. Downstairs, the lower level features a cozy family room with another electric fireplace, shared laundry, and a self-contained 2 bedroom in-law suite with its own kitchen, bathroom, and living area. Additional features like HardiePlank siding, a heat pump, attached garage, and low-maintenance landscaping support easy, year-round living. And with Canal Waterfront Park and the Alberni Inlet Trail just a short walk away - not to mention nearby schools, shops, and recreation - everything you need is close at hand. This home offers the kind of flexibility that lets you live your way. Reach out to arrange a private showing. (id:27476)
