Top-floor loft with a treehouse feel. A 23' vaulted ceiling peak & oversized windows fill this 845 sq ft, 2 bedroom home with sunlight. The open-concept main level combines living & dining areas with an eat-up bar, & opens onto a private south-facing balcony where BBQs are allowed with approval. Upstairs, the carpeted loft adds soft, cozy comfort. In-suite laundry, parking at your doorstep w/ bike & kayak storage keep daily life easy, with parks, shopping, trails and transit close by. Pets & rentals are permitted, subject to bylaws. Hawthorne Corner is one of Nanaimo's most sought-after addresses; a walkable village of nine landscaped buildings with an on-site cafe, nail salon and eco-minded touches like low-flush toilets & efficient lighting. Units rarely come available, let alone a top-floor loft like this! Start your mornings with coffee on the balcony & a stroll to the cafe. VIU & the Nanaimo Aquatic & Ice Centres are just minutes away. Book your showing today before its too late!
