Steam Engine Estates is one of Cumberland's most consistent performers and units here sell when they come up because the demand for this complex simply does not go away. This 1,286 sq ft patio home offers 2 bedrooms, a flex room, and 2 bathrooms in a clean open-concept layout that works for a couple downsizing, a first-time buyer, or an outdoor enthusiast wanting a low-maintenance base in one of Vancouver Island's most storied historic villages, where 19th-century coal mining heritage meets a fiercely alive arts, culture, and adventure community nestled at the foot of the Beaufort Range and the shores of Comox Lake. The main living area connects kitchen, dining, and living spaces naturally, anchored by a corner electric fireplace, with two wall-mounted flat-screen TVs included in the living room and primary bedroom. The kitchen features dark cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an apartment-sized deep freeze. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and 3-piece ensuite, and fresh paint throughout makes the home genuinely move-in ready. The flex room works as a home office, studio, or hobby space. The single-car garage is finished with rubber mat flooring and built-in shelving, and a second vehicle parks in the driveway. Strata is professionally managed with low monthly fees, quality landscaping, and a healthy contingency fund. Two pets welcome and no age restrictions. For pet owners, the sellers are including a portable folding wire panel fence that sets up off the patio and across the back lawn, giving your dogs a large enclosed space to enjoy fresh air and sunshine while you relax outside. Cumberland's village core is a short walk with restaurants, pubs, cafes, and local shops that give this community a character most towns its size simply cannot replicate. Comox Lake is minutes away, world-class mountain biking and hiking trails start at the edge of the complex, Mt. Washington is 15 minutes up the road, and the Comox Valley Airport is 30 minutes away.
