Overview
Description
Nature abounds on this large acreage near the rugged shoreline of the Bay of Fundy. On offer is a 152-acre property, mostly old growth forest, with a traditional forestry road winding its entire length. Here the new owner will have a place to escape from the cares of this modern world and to enjoy the tranquil peace and beauty of a rural oasis. Only a short distance from Bridgetown, travel along a quiet road until you arrive at a lane-way which leads you through a field of meadow grasses and wild flowers and up to a unique two-storey structure that offers a wealth of opportunities. Built largely using lumber milled from logs harvested on the property, the building reflects the attention to detail of a fine craftsman. Intended initially as a shop, it has served as a rustic summer cottage for the last 38 years hosting family and friends within its fine walls and generous spaces. Although not connected, there is an artisan well that provides a constant flow of fresh spring water and the cottage has been heated with wood stoves over the years. Within a short walk of Hampton Beach, miles of cycling, and only a short excursion to Annapolis Royal with it's Farmer's Market, Theatre, restaurants, and quaint shops, while nearby Bridgetown offers the amenities of town. Unique properties such as this with its large acreage, mature forest, and interesting architecture rarely come onto the market. Book your showing today before this opportunity is gone.
