vermiculite Vermiculite is a silver-gold to gray-brown shiny mineral that was commonly used as insulation, especially in older homes. Some vermiculite insulation contains asbestos fibres that, when inhaled, can cause severe lung disease. To be safe, if you have vermiculite insulation, do not disturb it. Instead call a professional to determine whether asbestos is present and if so, have it removed. ProPacific Hazmat Services are experts in vermiculite assessment and removal.

5 acres -3 bedrooms, 2 bath - $389,900 65-1572 Seabird Road - $97,900 2 ½ acres 3 bedrooms 294,900 1940 Elander

This 3 bedroom, 2 bath rancher is located on a peaceful, quiet private 5 acre property at the end of a dead end road. A huge country kitchen, dining room and oversize living room give you a wonderful living space, along with large master bedroom with ensuite, and walk in closet. A second residence is allowed, and there are plenty of tall straight trees to build a new log home any size you may want. A second option could be to select log enough to help pay for your new home.

This 3 bed/2 bath plus den or 4th bedroom, 1800 sq ft home has a great location in an adult-oriented park, backing onto open fields with horses for a country feel, yet only minutes from Nanaimo and all amenities. The home is in great condition with metal roof, vinyl siding, low maintenance yard, new hot water heater, and a comfortable certified woodstove. There are also raised garden beds, a very private backyard patio for BBQs, garden pond & fountain, large den, an exercise room, and a workshop for your hobbies.

2120 Nanaimo River Road - $420,000 This unique property is for sale for the first time since it was purchased in 1897. It’s a pristine 46 acre parcel of timbered land located just 15 minutes from downtown Nanaimo on Nanaimo River Road. A rare opportunity to incorporate the natural beauty of a mountain stream into your lifestyle and every day surroundings. Zoning will allow subdivision to 5 acre parcels, with some restrictions, or up to 2 dwellings now.
