398 Petroglyph Cres

About this home

Most listings promise a view. This one delivers it from practically every room. Tucked into a quiet corner of Newport Vista — Nanaimo's well-kept 55+ community on Petroglyph Crescent — this end-unit patio home sits elevated above the complex, giving you a front-row seat to the ocean, the mainland mountains, and the kind of sky that makes you linger over your morning coffee a little longer. The open living and dining area is spacious without feeling oversized — room for a proper dining table, a reading chair by the fireplace, and still space to breathe. Sliding doors open onto a generous balcony where the view doesn't stop, as you overlook the beautiful water views. The gas fireplace keeps winter evenings cozy. The galley-style kitchen is fully equipped (fridge, stove, built-in microwave, dishwasher) with an abundance of solid oak cabinetry and a separate eating nook wrapped in windows overlooking the treetops — a genuinely pleasant place to eat. The primary bedroom with charming corner windows provides views, a spacious walk-in closet, and a private 3-piece ensuite with stand-up shower. The second bedroom is bright and well-sized, with large windows and direct access to the main 4-piece bathroom. In-suite laundry is tucked into its own utility room alongside a newer hot water tank and extra storage shelving. A built-in vacuum system and carport storage round things out. Single-level living. Wheelchair accessible floor plan. Reasonable strata fees. Walking distance to trails, parks, and everyday shopping, with easy Island Highway access.This is the one you tour and stop looking.
