Overview
Description
If you’re hoping to get away from all the hustle bustle of a busy life & live off grid, this 8.5 acre waterfront property could be just what you’re looking for! This enchanting log home is located in a private gated area at Sherbrooke Lake, NS. It’s approximately one hour from Chester & Kentville & two and a half hours from Halifax Airport. The cottage was built by Roy Newcombe in 1992. Roy was a renowned craftsman, known for his ability to build quality custom log homes & furnishings. The treed lot is very private, offering open space surrounding the home for two storage sheds, wood storage & Bunkie. The Bunkie is equipped with a loft & has screens that can be switched out for seasonal air flow. The septic is located near the wood storage in the front. The stunning 16’ x 20’ post & beam covered deck is equipped with skylights to allow for lots of natural light. Solar panels allow for a small amount of interior light in the evening, but most of the home, including the fridge & deep well pump, is operated by a propane generator. The open concept kitchen dining & living area is warmed by a woodstove, allowing the heat to rise to the cathedral ceiling & loft above. Two sets of garden doors lead you from the living area to a sunroom & the covered deck. From the loft, you can steal away for a few private moments to the 4’ x 9’ covered balcony. A 3 pc bath & bedroom are also found on the main level. If the walls of this home could talk, they would tell many tales of the memories made here. Your family could carry on this tradition, starting the minute you make this property your own. The sandy beach leads you right down into the lake & stretches along the water from point to point, offering approximately 500’ of waterfrontage. Most contents remain, making this a “turnkey” package. Just bring your personal items & food.
