307 3rd St — Courtenay, British Columbia

Welcome to the heart of Old Orchard, where timeless character meets thoughtful modern updates. Situated on a rare pair of separately titled lots just steps from downtown Courtenay, this beautifully restored 1928 home blends historic charm with the peace of mind of today's improvements. Set on .22 acres, the private backyard is a tranquil retreat with centennial fruit trees, gardens, and plenty of space to relax or entertain, all just moments from downtown cafés, restaurants, and boutiques. Inside, 1,513 sq.ft. of inviting living space showcases original hardwood floors, fresh designer-inspired paint, and a stunning new kitchen featuring custom wood cabinetry, rich blue accents, a handcrafted Hornby Island maple slab island, brand-new appliances, and a never-used dishwasher. Soaring 9-foot ceilings enhance the spacious living room and kitchen, while four bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. Major upgrades include all-new electrical wiring, a new 200-amp service, and full environmental remediation by Tsolum & Tsable, allowing you to enjoy the home's character with confidence. The detached workshop has been insulated and finished with plumbing and electrical, making it ideal as a studio, office, workshop, or future accessory dwelling (buyer to verify with the City of Courtenay). The unfinished basement provides abundant storage and future potential. With two separately titled lots, buyers may wish to explore future development opportunities, including a carriage house or laneway home (subject to City approvals and zoning). Located in one of the Comox Valley's most beloved neighbourhoods, you'll enjoy quiet tree-lined streets, easy access to the Puntledge River, parks, trails, Mount Washington, and the ocean—all while being just steps from downtown. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored piece of Courtenay history with exceptional lifestyle and investment potential. (id:63357)
