Overview
Description
Elevated on a hill with sweeping water views of Yarmouth Harbour, this one level, 2 bedroom bungalow would make a perfect full time home, vacation retreat, or rental property. Enjoy scenic views of marine water crafts along with the tranquil lights from the town’s main waterfront reflecting across in the evening. Ideally located just outside of town within 5 minutes of beautiful white sand beaches, Cape Forchu Lighthouse, fishing wharfs, parks, hospital, and the town of Yarmouth with numerous shops, amenities, and restaurants. This welcoming home offers entertainment opportunities with an open concept design, side deck with water views, and patio doors leading into a covered carport with plenty of room for a patio area with BBQ. The added benefit of all contents being included makes this property move in ready. A drilled well provides a reliable water source, while electric baseboards and Electric Thermal Storage units with time-of-use power offer an efficient heating setup. This home would also be easy to winterize when gone for long periods of time. The partially finished basement with electric baseboards and an Electric Thermal Storage unit provides additional space and an opportunity for the new owner to create whatever best suits their needs. A standout feature is the 40’ x 35’ steel Quonset Hut, offering an abundance of space for a workshop, storage, and recreational equipment. The entry door is extra wide with wooden finishing beside it allowing the opportunity to convert it to a garage door. It includes a separate electrical connection and two rooms inside. It may not be direct waterfront, but it is close enough with unobstructed water views and no development across the road. This is a property you'll want to experience for yourself.
