We think Hardieville needs to be renamed Parksville. Why? Because nature and wildlife lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and people seeking peace and tranquility will find all those things at North Country Estates. Why Parksville though? Hardieville has one of the city's newest neighbourhood park and playground (Georgetown). To the west is Alexander Wilderness Park, 630 acres of tranquil preserve ideal for nature and exercise enthusiasts. Just north is Pavan Park, a 308-acre nature reserve with 10 km of shale trails for running, hiking, or horseback riding plus a fully equipped picnic compound you can book for private parties. Just to the south is Peenaquim Park, a combination of natural terrain and organized sports activities with an expansive off-leash dog park and much, much more. Development starts this year on the Northside Regional Park, a few short blocks east of North Country Estates. This 73-acre park will be the north side's answer to Henderson Lake. Get more information on these fabulous parks at www.lethbridge.ca. The recently completed North Scenic Drive extension makes the entire city accessible from "Parksville" within minutes - even the University and the College. But enough about the location. You need to come and explore the area for yourself. This home is outstanding - fresh, clean, contemporary, easy to live in - and enjoy. View the pictures and tour Parksville condo living online.
