Positioned in Nanaimo’s historic Old City, 471 Selby Street offers a unique opportunity for an owner-occupier, professional practice, creative business or investor. Zoned DT8 Mixed-Use, this character property offers 2,772 sq. ft. of finished space on an 8,944 sq. ft. lot. A major permitted renovation in 2018 included updated plumbing, electrical, insulation, windows, 200-amp service and engineer-approved structural upgrades. Soaring 14-foot ceilings and abundant natural light create an impressive space ideal for an office, studio or live/work setup. A heated detached garage with its own full bathroom adds flexibility and potential. DT8 zoning allows office, retail, daycare, restaurant, live/work, personal services and multiple-family residential uses and more, subject to City requirements. Walkable to downtown shops, cafés and the seawall, with Hullo Ferry and Harbour Air less than 10 minutes away, this is a rare opportunity to combine business, investment and lifestyle in Nanaimo.
