Overview
Description
12 Linden Avenue - an iconic 1920 stucco residence by renowned builder Charlie Wright - invites you into the warm heart of historic Wolfville. Cherished by only three families in its 107 year history, and a sister house to the Colville on Main Street, this home’s rare air-chamber walls, original millwork and soaring ceilings speak to inspired craftsmanship, while thoughtful updates make it comfortable for modern family life. Spanning more than 4,000 sq. ft., the flexible layout offers 5+1 bedrooms, two full baths and a powder room, with generous principal rooms that welcome gatherings and quiet moments alike. Once home to a respected local doctor, a portion of the property operated as a doctor’s office with its own entrance. The zoning supports professional use, multigenerational living or conversion to apartments. A charming secondary staircase, once used by household staff, leads directly into the kitchen. This warm focal point features a Wolf range, handsome built-ins and two generous pantries that keep cooking supplies neatly organized. It also offers direct access to a back deck where you can dine under the vines throughout the summer. The elegant main staircase and extra-wide landing lead to each of the bright bedrooms, while the third floor currently serves as a billiards and music room and includes plumbing for easy future development of the loft. Modern heat pumps ensure year-round comfort without sacrificing the home’s historic soul. A double garage at the rear of the property currently serves as storage space. Set on a mature lot in Wolfville’s core, within walking distance of Acadia University, downtown shops, cafés and Wolfville School, this property blends history, character and neighborhood convenience to create a rare, once-in-a-generation opportunity.
