Surrounded by trees and backing onto parkland, this inviting Protection Island retreat offers privacy, character and an easy coastal rhythm. The main home features vaulted wood ceilings, a cozy woodstove and an efficient layout flowing to covered and open-air spaces. Heated floors enhance the updated bathroom, while the seasonal outdoor shower is ideal after a swim, paddle or beach walk. Set apart in the yard, the studio/bunkie provides flexible space for visitors, hobbies or a quiet escape. Life on the island comes with beaches, several treed parks and the much-loved Dinghy Dock Pub. Community amenities include a hall, library, museum, garden, fire station and public boat ramp, along with municipal water and sewer connection to septic. A quick passenger ferry connects to downtown Nanaimo, with Helijet, Harbour Air, Hullo and BC Ferries nearby. BC’s Speculation and Vacancy Tax does not apply here. Measurements and data to be verified if deemed material.
