What makes a house a 'HOME'...
Feeling nostalgic? Here’s a scene sure to evoke fond memories…a gracious century home on a quiet tree-lined street, a white picket fence & a covered verandah, and the sound of church bells on Sundays. All reminiscent of a time when a house meant a ‘Home’.
Well, you don’t have to go back in time to enjoy this enviable lifestyle. This lovely Mahone Bay century home offers all of the above and more. Within the 1900 sq-ft of living space you’ll also find original features galore, including refinished hard & soft wood floors, high ceilings, a large and welcoming front foyer with a handsome winding staircase, and beautiful woodwork throughout.
Generous main floor principal rooms offer an ‘almost’ open concept living-dining-kitchen area. The Living Room features a propane fireplace and deep bay with window seat. Just off the Kitchen find a handy 3-pc bath/laundry and easy access to the delightful back patio via the back mudroom. Also on the main floor is a true flex room which has served over the years as an office, TV room/den and main floor bedroom (with main floor full bath just down the hall). Three heavy original doors currently serve as a striking panelled wall between the flex room and Living Room, but could easily be removed to create an even larger and more open living/entertaining space.
Upstairs, the generous upper landing is a perfect spot for your office nook or comfy sitting area. There are 2 large Bedrooms, including the Primary with walk thru closet, and a pretty 4-pc family bath.
Outdoor spaces are equally wonderful. A large yard that extends around the front, side and back of the house will please the gardener and the kids, and it’s fully fenced so great for the pooch too! Enjoy a mix of fruit trees & flowering shrubs, and a patio area for the BBQ and outdoor entertaining. A large shed and paved driveway complete this tidy package.
Recent improvements include insulation (exterior walls & basement), complete interior repainting, granite countertops & all new appliances, new custom blinds, and more. (download the “Recent Improvements List” below)
A short 3 block stroll brings you to the hustle & bustle of Mahone Bay’s Main Street and all the marvelous shops, services, galleries and cafes that make this charming seaside town one of Nova Scotia’s most beloved gems.
