Description
This home on approx 18 acres is less than half a mile off Highway 19, 5 minutes from Inverness. A spacious home, there are 3 bedrooms on the upper level and one - two if desired - on the lower. Recent renovations did not restore the kitchen on the lower level but that could be done. Both floors have a full bath. Entering through an attractive brick colonnade, stairs go up and down to either floor. The lower level also has a separate entrance, as does the upper level , via patio doors off the rear deck. This elevated deck faces south with wide views, including of the Cape Mabou hills. Both floors have handsome brick fireplaces, the upstairs one with an insert. A wood stove is situated downstairs but not presently connected to the Selkirk SS flue system. The main heating system is provided by oil-fired hot water radiators . Comprehensive renovations have just been completed: In 2021: A new oil HW furnace was installed, and separate electric hot water heater. The exterior chimney for the fireplaces was stucco-ed and had a new liner. In 2022 the roof was replaced. In 2023 the lower level was completely rebuilt: new floor system, drywall, drop ceiling, wiring, radiators, light fixtures, bathroom… Also the driveway has just been graveled as it winds from the North Highlands Road to the house. The property is composed of two parcels or PID’s: the house parcel of 3 acres, and the other 15 acres (as per the NS Property system: the land has not been surveyed). See the aerial photo below for an outline of the whole property for sale. The land around the house is mostly meadow with occasional trees, including some lovely individual planted varieties like cedar, catalpa, various kinds of pine, purple maple and more, for a park-like effect. Just a few feet from the edge of the field south of the house, hidden in alders, is the MacIsaac's Brook that crosses the property. The property entrance is less than 1/2 mile off Highway #19 on the North Highland Road
