Description

A rare offering along Crescent Beach where history and coastal beauty come together. Known as the 1859 Historic Romkey Home, this restored farmhouse blends timeless character with modern convenience, set on approximately 3.3 acres of park-like land just moments from the ocean. Set back from the road and surrounded by nature, the property offers a true sense of privacy and escape. A view of the ocean and the sound of the waves create a quiet connection to the landscape. The home has been upgraded to enhance everyday living. Recent upgrades include a new kitchen with granite countertops, all new appliances, an updated laundry room, new septic system, whole-home water treatment system, and hot water heater offering peace of mind while maintaining its historic charm, with warm oak floors and classic six-over-six windows. The layout has been opened to a more open-concept design, ideal for entertaining. Flexible rooms allow for a variety of uses, whether for family living, creative pursuits, or hosting guests. The impressive post-and-beam barn offers exceptional versatility, ideal for workshop use, studio space, storage, or future lifestyle and income opportunities such as events or seasonal rentals. An additional outbuilding further supports a range of uses, from gardening to hobby farming or homesteading. Located within a vibrant and welcoming coastal community known for its artists, musicians, and relaxed lifestyle, the property is just a short walk to Crescent Beach and a 10-minute walk to Rissers Beach Provincial Park. Enjoy nearby cafés, galleries, and local shops, while being only 20 minutes to Bridgewater and within easy reach of Lunenburg and Mahone Bay. Whether envisioned as a year-round home, live/work property, a coastal retreat, or a legacy property to be enjoyed for generations, this is a rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Nova Scotia's South Shore.
