$574,900 · 5081 Ian Ave, Port Alberni, BC

This is the highest home on a quiet North Alberni block - a perch that offers stunning views of the coastal mountains and a one-of-a-kind personality. With its charm, extensive updates, and flexible layout, it’s a place that feels both inspiring and deeply livable. The main floor brings together everything you need for everyday ease: a spacious living room perfect for connection and downtime, a west-facing sunroom that glows in the afternoon light, a full bathroom, main-level laundry, and a well-equipped kitchen ready for whatever’s on the menu. There’s also a comfortable bedroom on this level - ideal for guests, work-from-home setups, or quiet evenings in. Upstairs, three good-sized bedrooms offer a mix of space and privacy. Downstairs, a fully self-contained two-bedroom suite with its own entrance, driveway, laundry, hydro meter, and recent updates (new paint, flooring, baseboards, appliances) makes multi-generational living or rental income straightforward and seamless. Upgrades include updated plumbing and electrical, newer appliances, dual ductless heat pumps in both the main home and suite, new blinds, gutters, fencing, and more. Outside, the home offers both a front and back yard, fully fenced for peace of mind, with lane access and a double driveway that easily fits RV or boat parking. Set in a welcoming, family-friendly neighbourhood near parks, schools, trails, and shopping, this home has seen many moments under the pergola in the backyard - a glass of something cold, vines overhead, and the day winding down. The current owners are moving for work and hope to pass it along to someone who’ll love it just as much. Call to arrange your private viewing.
