Overview
Description
This immaculate home with a large garage, shed and plenty of paved parking sits on over an acre of well manicured property overlooking the harbour in a very desirable area of town close to all amenities. Once renovated to allow for two separate units, it has been utilized as a single family dwelling over the past few years but still set up as a two unit. With its five bedrooms, 3.5 baths, two living rooms, two kitchens, a dining room, main floor laundry and lots of hardwood flooring throughout, it would be a perfect spot for a large blended family, an in-law suite, use as multi generational living quarters, or live in one and let the other pay your mortgage. There are two staircases, one of which accesses three bedrooms and bath and the other with access to two bedrooms and bath. Each unit also has a main floor bath and propane fireplace as well. The front facing windows of the home enjoy views of the harbour. Believed to date back to the late 1800s, there have been additions and many upgrades over the years. Gems like this do not present themselves very often. Call or text your favourite realtor today for your private viewing.
