Behind it, the 2020 carriage house offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, vaulted ceilings, in-floor heating, on demand hot water, and its own garage.

The flat rectangular lot keeps the yard usable corner to corner and the alley keeps the front curb clean. University Village is minutes away for groceries and coffee, Vancouver Island University is close by, and downtown Nanaimo, the hospital, and the ferries are a short drive.
