101 TAIT ROAD : 110 Tait Road is arguably the nicest family home in Nanaimo today. Not only is it situated on a quiet side road in the Cinnabar Valley within walking distance to an excellent elementary school and playground, it is also a very short drive from an excellent shopping area and close access to the Nanaimo Parkway.
The back yard deserves special attention. They just don t make them this large any more or with so many giant cedars to offer utter privacy. The two levels of this fabulous fully fenced yard offer room for children to play as well as lots of space for an ornamental garden. In the sunny area of the yard you ll also find raised vegetable beds and a handy garden shed.
The front yard is also spacious and very pretty with a rolling green lawn and charming ornamental trees and shrubs.
The home was custom built some years ago to the highest standards. A recent updating has made it light, bright and beautiful. The front door opens to reveal a small foyer that immediately opens to a hall that leads to the kitchen and family room to the left and the living room/dining room to the right. You ll find new blond laminate flooring throughout the main living areas and new Berber carpeting in bedrooms and on the stairs. There s also lots of new tile work downstairs and in the kitchen.
The kitchen is big, bright and open. The word bright cannot be overemphasized with this gorgeous home. Large windows let the light in from all directions and even on a rainy day, the home is warm, welcoming and filled with light. You ll love the new tile countertop in the kitchen as well as the abundance of cabinets. A cozy family room is open to the kitchen and features a lovely bay window. Notice too, the feature walls of golden cedar here and in the living room and hall. A door from the kitchen opens to the double attached carport.
The living/dining room is an immense space and yet it feels warm and cozy. Highlights include a gas fireplace and sliding glass doors leading to a large covered deck. On this living level you will also find a spacious bedroom and a full four-piece bath.
Steps down take you to a full light, bright lower level where you will find two more large bedrooms including a very spacious master bedroom. There s also a three-piece bath, a laundry room and workshop, a linen closet, extra storage space and a huge rec. room with an airtight gas stove and a door leading to the covered patio and the back yard.
With its three main living areas: family room, rec. room and living room, there really is space for all family activities and privacy for all family members. Another bonus: the home is spotlessly clean and decorated in neutral tones. There`s nothing to do but move in and enjoy. At 2,340 square feet, it s the perfect family home in one of the best family neighbourhoods in the city.

543 ROSEHILL STREET : Stunning and jaw dropping are two adjectives that most readily come to mind when you enter 543 Rosehill Street. The charming and beautifully landscaped exterior leads you to believe that you ll find a lovely house inside which you will but nothing on the outside can prepare you for the magnificent interior.
The renovation in this home was done right. It took five years of painstaking attention to detail to get it perfect. This home has lost none of its character and at the same time it has stepped into the present age. It is at once a delightful cottage and a true West Coast home with soaring indoor spaces.
The owners tore out the attic and vaulted the ceilings of the main rooms, adding enormous windows and glass doors to let light poor in. They added a massive cedar deck that is partly covered and overlooks the gorgeous backyard with grass like a putting green and perfect, weed-free flower beds.
Floors in the main rooms are restored hardwood with the patina of age and the sheen that comes from hours of painstaking refinishing. The brick chimney of the wood burning fireplace in the living room has been exposed on all sides to add texture and interest to both the sitting room and the kitchen. Wood beams have been ingeniously used as accents and wide sills on windows add an architectural fillip.
The kitchen is a dream with new stainless steel appliances, modern lights including pot lights and stainless steel and maple fronted cabinets. Counters are covered in marble tile.
Every detail in this home has been thought out for maximum beauty and character. For instance, mini pot lights surround all the trayed ceilings and interesting display niches show up in the dining area and living rooms. The two upstairs bedrooms are quite large and share a fabulously redone bathroom with slate tile floor, a fully tiled oversize shower and a pedestal sink.
Colours are both bold, and subtle leaning heavily to earth tones. They were chosen with great care to enhance the lines of the rooms and reflect the grace of the spaces.
The downstairs of this gorgeous home offers another large living space. It s a full height basement and could very easily be suited. There is a separate back entrance to a covered patio. A small kitchenette is already in place. There are storage rooms, a large living area currently being used as a big office, a laundry area, a large three-piece bathroom and a bedroom. Like the rest of the house, the downstairs is tidy, clean and well-kept.
This home has everything you could possibly want including a very large yard and the perfect location in the nicest part of Townsite. It s within walking distance of shopping, an elementary school and Bowen Park.
Best of all, everything you could ever want to do in a home is done. It s a dream renovation and the word stunning really doesn t do it justice. This one is a must-see!
