Description

Tucked away in the Hemford Forest subdivision, 278 Forest Dr—affectionately known as the “Hidden Hemlock" - offers the perfect lakeside escape with laid-back, campy charm. This 1-bedroom cottage is open, bright, and full of character, featuring warm wooden interior walls and a relaxed, back-to-nature feel. Set across two PIDs totalling just over an acre, there’s plenty of space to unwind, explore, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Designed for simple, seasonal living, the property includes a composting toilet and electrical panel, with no well or septic (occupancy permit has been issued). Whether you're looking for a personal getaway or a fun retreat to share with friends and family, this spot delivers. Enjoy deeded access to Hirtle Lake, complete with a swimming area, boat launch, and a local beach/park where kids can play and families can gather. There’s ample room to park your boat, and the second half-acre parcel opens up exciting future potential—build another cottage, create a guest space, or give family their own place next door. Quiet, safe streets make it ideal for walking and biking, adding to the welcoming community feel. Located just 20 minutes from Bridgewater and a little over an hour to Halifax, it’s close enough for convenience but far enough to truly disconnect. Summer is here, it's time to escape to the lake. Immediate possession available. Book your showing today.
