Description
Are you thinking of investing in Chester, but not ready to move quite yet? This opportunity offers a price competitive advantage for Chester waterfront, while the new owner complies with a life tenant lease that is currently in place. There are a few outstanding aspects with this property; 1 km walking distance to the centre of the village, on the water in a protected harbour with deep anchorage, across the bridge from the Rails for Trails path for biking, jogging, or walking your dog. Circa 1800, “Norman Swinehammer House” has many attributes that show the quality workmanship of days gone by, including the rock foundation on exposed basement walls, interior hand-hewn beams, wide plank flooring, and character framing. There are thoughtful modern upgrades as well, including a metal roof, and Electric Thermal Storage heating units. The layout includes a kitchen with a central island, anchoring the dining/living/ sunroom spaces. A welcoming foyer, convenient three-piece bathroom, and office space (with spiral staircase to the lower level) complete the main floor. Several walkout decks on the waterfront side give a seamless transition to the outdoors. Upstairs, two bedrooms and a shared bathroom are the perfect package. The surprise is the lower-level finished recreation room featuring full size windows for plenty of sunlight, with back-to-back wood stove/fireplace hearth around the corner. A third bathroom and plenty of storage space filling out the entire footprint of the home is another plus. Exuding historical charm, the basement was at one time the village tavern. Come celebrate life in Chester where everything is possible, including fine art at Going Coastal, theatre at the Chester Playhouse, dockside seafood chowder at the Rope Loft, lattes at the Kiwi Café, fine dining at the Sunroom, sailing at the Chester Yacht Club, tall tales at the Focsle Tavern and sports at the Chester Tennis & Golf Clubs.
