Overview
Description
A brand new, custom home, nestled in the valley at the estuary where the Mushamush River meets the waters of the Town of Mahone Bay, awaits its first owner and this owner could be you. With an asking price, which INCLUDES the HST, this property offers exceptional value for the buyer who will only settle for entirely new construction. Janes Road lies hidden off the old, coastal Highway 3, just before the bridge crossing the river, marking the boundary of Oakland and the Mahone Bay by the sea. This cul-de-sac ends below the former railway bridge providing a connection to a path to the popular "Rails To Trails" which connects the historic, coastal towns of Lunenburg County. Constructed beneath a canopy of mature trees, this 1,650 sq. ft. home, on an ICF foundation, is on two levels, with a second-floor, covered verandah (7ft x 37ft) across the front to take fullest advantage of a beautiful natural setting - walking distance to town amenities.. The insulated concrete foundation for the lower level, which is full walk-out at the front, faces west. The 12ft by 20ft garage (easily adaptable as 250 sq ft of additional living space) opens directly to a large family-room which is adjacent a bedroom and full 4-piece bath. This lower level would be suitable for a parent or family member, or would also serve well as a large, one-bedroom, income suite. The main level features a large, open-concept living-dining-kitchen with glass doors opening to the broad, elevated, outdoor-living space. The main floor provides two bedrooms - one at the front and one at the rear of the home, separated by a hall and spacious family bath. The laundry is off the rear foyer which opens to a private deck and beautiful back yard. Please note, due to this home being outside the town limits, the benefit of lower county taxes apply. The home comes with all new appliances and a new-home warranty. It offers all electric heating and cooling, with ductless heat-pump on the main level. One hour to Halifax.
