2635 5th Ave

Some homes make you choose between space, location, and room to pursue your own projects. This one doesn't. Set in one of South Alberni's most walkable neighbourhoods, this three-bedroom home pairs everyday family living with a full 525-square-foot detached workshop, a wraparound deck, and a lower-level family room, all within walking distance of the shops, trails, and waterfront that define the area. Step through the french doors off the entry and into a spacious living room warmed by a propane fireplace, framed by large north- and west-facing windows and coved ceilings, with original fir floors underfoot beneath the carpet. The dining room flows naturally from here, catching plenty of light before opening through an arched doorway into a well-equipped kitchen with generous storage, stainless appliances, and a walkout to a private sunroom. The main level continues with a large primary bedroom offering dual closets, a second bedroom, and a full bathroom. Downstairs, a family room, laundry area, third bedroom, and no shortage of storage round out the everyday living space, room to spread out, host, or simply unwind. Outside, a 260-square-foot wraparound deck and raised garden beds make the most of the outdoor living, while the detached workshop and garden shed offer serious space for tools, projects, or a home-based business. A parking pad at the back with laneway access adds everyday convenience. This location puts you within walking distance of Weaver Park, Harbour Quay, the Uptown shopping district, the Savoy Theatre, and a range of restaurants, plus the Quay to Quay Pathway right at your doorstep. Canal Beach and the Alberni Inlet Trail trailhead are just a short trip away. A heat pump keeps things comfortable through every season. Picture your mornings on that deck, your evenings by the fireplace, and your weekends just minutes from the waterfront. Reach out any time to arrange your private viewing.
