Description
If you’re a single buyer or couple looking to break into the market and start building equity, an investor beginning a rental portfolio, or someone ready to downsize, 1801 Highway 224 is an excellent opportunity for ownership. Enjoy the perks of rural living with the convenience of an easy commute to nearby communities. This cozy 1-bedroom home sits on 0.75 acres surrounded by mature trees. Thoughtfully landscaped plants and flower beds bloom from early spring through late fall, creating a haven for birds and wildlife. From the back deck, enjoy daily visits from cardinals, purple finches, nuthatches, and woodpeckers. In the evening, take in sunsets over the Shubenacadie River, listen to the peepers, and watch deer pass through the property.
