Description
2+ Acre with Renovated Home - Located in the seaside community of East River Point, this circa 1890, 3 bedroom, 2 bath home was totally renovated around 2011. Taken back to the studs, the work at the time included new wiring, new plumbing, new windows, new exterior doors, new flooring (hardwood/ tile), new bathrooms, new kitchen and more. The bright country kitchen has butcher block counters, a double farmhouse sink and a "Sweetheart" wood stove as the center piece. The living room / dining room, with exposed hand hewn ceiling beams, also includes a newer PE Super Classic LE wood stove. One main floor room is currently used as a bedroom, but it could be a den or a study. The mudroom, includes a laundry area, near a full bath. Upstairs there is a generous principle bedroom with a wall of closets, and the 3rd bedroom. Both bedrooms open to a full bath, with a claw foot tub and a sky light. The upstairs landing offers a lovely built-in window seat with storage. The 2.2+ acre property offers a wonderful fenced garden area, with mature trees. The mature grape vines in the garden produce a generous amount of grapes. There are blueberry, haskap, raspberry, blackberry bushes as well as cherry / apple trees and a lavender garden as well. There are 2 outbuildings ( one used as a workshop) and a garage (newer roof shingles), which could use a bit of TLC, while still offering lots of storage for bikes, seasonal gear, wood storage etc. East River Point is 10 minutes to the amenities of Chester and Hubbards, offering Our Health Centre, day care, coastal golf course, Yacht Club, Art Centre, schools, interesting shops and cafes and more, on Nova Scotia's treasured Bluenose Coast, the South Shore, 50 minutes to Halifax.
