Overview
Description
Right of way over neighbouring property to access the waters of Herring Cove. Situated on a mature, well-treed lot with seasonal views of Herring Cove, sits this one owner-built home. This well-built, traditional, two-story home is as attractive as it is sturdy and has embraced one family for nearly 60 years. The home sits on a corner lot just across a quaint bridge on a quiet, dead-end street. Upon entering the main level, you will find a convenient powder room, a bright eat-in kitchen with plenty of freshly painted cabinetry, and a large combined living/dining room. You will be pleased to find multiple sliding doors affording an abundance of natural light, almost bringing the outside in. Patio doors lead to the freshly painted oversized deck, extending your seasonal living space. The second level features three good-sized bedrooms, a den, and a 4 piece bath. Enjoy the warmth and timeless charm of the original hardwood flooring throughout most of the main and upper levels. The basement has great height and consists of a laundry room, an office, and a rec room with an outside entrance to the yard. This could make a great teen or in-law suite or home office . The built-in garage is an added bonus, and thanks to the vendor's innovative thought, has doors both at the front and back. No need to worry about the septic, as it is brand new. The well was professionally cleaned and inspected recently. Although the home is original and charming, it will require updating including the upper bath and portions of the siding (there is a box of siding in the garage). The interior has a fresh coat of paint throughout and is spotless. Experience what Herring Covers knows and love about their community! To mention a few: fishing, swimming at Long Pond Beach or Crystal Crescent, hiking at MacIntosh Run, the Bluffs, a strong sense of community, coastal views, including a look-off at the end of Shore Road.
