Description

REDMOND ISLAND COMPOUND An incomparable estate, encompassing an 11.75 acre island residence, two mainland homes on a one acre piece and a three acre peninsula at the end of the community of Prospect. The property totals over 5000 feet of ocean frontage with several beaches, rocky outcroppings, sheltered bays and open ocean with crashing surf. It is the complete package! The main island residence is over 2000 square feet of living space with five bedrooms, 3 bathrooms (including an ensuite), and a living room with a soaring two story cathedral ceiling and towering windows. The main floor features a screened in porch, full-length waterside deck, and a covered barbecue deck on the sheltered side of the home. Down the lane is a sauna outbuilding with a Harvia wood burning system. For parking your boat, a 32-foot ramp and float sit adjacent to the 400 foot white sand beach. A solar array provides electricity for the home along with propane tanks for the gas stove, fireplace, Empire off grid direct heater vents, and a Generac generator. Some islands have the distinct advantage of witnessing sunrises and sunsets, and this is no exception. The scenery here is simply breathtaking. On the mainland, the guest house has a compact layout with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, dining and living rooms. The barn features a second-floor unit with two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, living, dining and an expansive second story deck. Downstairs is laundry and enough space for two cars and a work area. A 70-foot wharf, ramp and float provide a solid landing spot for a large watercraft. Furnishings are included in the sale, enabling a turn key transition. Regarded as one of the premiere boating and kayaking destinations, the multitude of islands, inlets, beaches, and coves are a treat for natural exploration enthusiasts. The location is an easy half hour trip to the city of Halifax and 45 minutes to the Stanfield International Airport.
