2745 Derwent Ave Great fixer upper...One of Cumberland’s original homes, this historic property was the 5th house ever built in the village, dating back to 1894. Rich in character and full of timeless charm, the home offers solid bones and a story that’s woven into the fabric of the community. The second owner, founder of Cumberland’s beloved Empire Days festivities, lived here for over 60 years, a true testament to the warmth and legacy within these walls. Offering 5 bedrooms (2 upstairs and 3 downstairs) and 2 bathrooms (one on each level), the layout provides flexibility for families, guests, or creative space. A large dining room is perfect for gatherings, while the cozy living room creates an inviting place to unwind. Set on a fully fenced 0.14-acre lot, on a laneway to access the backyard, offering room to garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the outdoors. While it presents an opportunity for updates and personalization, it is both move-in ready and an exciting chance to restore and enhance a true Cumberland gem. Centrally located in the heart of the village, you’re steps from downtown restaurants, shops, and a local brewery, with world-class mountain biking right outside your front door and Comox Lake just down the road. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Cumberland’s history while enjoying everything this vibrant community is known for. (id:203)
