Overview
Description
This stunning custom designed home checks off all your boxes – 3 beds, 3 full baths, 2600 sq. ft. of living space with wrap around decks and a chalet / getaway vibe. This 14 yr old home was designed and built by a family who planned to live here forever. This is evident in the ICF construction, quality of workmanship and high-end fit & finish throughout. No expense was spared! You will cherish the heritage craftsman style chimney, gleaming hardwood floors and a kitchen that could be featured in Better Homes & Gardens. The welcoming main level foyer opens to a cozy family room with an airtight woodstove on one side and a large den on the other. This room has a separate entrance to the front patio, making it ideal for a home based business. The private second level location of the kitchen, dining room and living room is away from the comings & goings at the main level entrance. These rooms are seamlessly connected to the expansive front lawn and offer views of the parkland / trail system across the road. With large windows and 2 sets of doors opening onto the wrap around deck, the sunlight spills into the front of the house. The primary bedroom is tucked away in the back corner and has a walk-in closet & ensuite bath. The whole property has a warm, country feel - with a double detached garage that’s fully insulated and wired with an attached wood shed and a “toy shed” at the back for your lawn tractor or 4-wheeler. A quaint older chicken coop and fully fenced chicken run with lots of open lawn space left for the garden of your dreams complete this property. The Montague Gold Mines / Lake Loon area is ideal for nature lovers with easy access to Lake Major, Loon Lake, public golf course and miles of trails through the old gold mines that have now become a nature reserve. The unique appeal of this property is that it offers a country lifestyle, while enjoying an executive style home that’s just 10 mins from Burnside and 15 mins from Halifax. Offers due by May 18th 6pm.
