Description
A well-maintained 1887 farmhouse at the back of a star-shaped, almost 4-acre lot on a south-facing hill overlooking the islands of Mahone Bay. Originally a strawberry farm, the trees have grown up over the last 36 years, but the full view could easily be reclaimed with selective tree culling. Although currently not subdivided, there are potentially 4 view lots that could be subdivided with proper approvals, according to the municipal office. The house has 3 bedrooms and an additional partially finished bedroom and one bathroom upstairs, and an attic that could be developed. Downstairs you will find a cozy living room with a cream enamelled wood stove for chilly winter evenings, with an attached music room or library, a formal dining room, and a well-appointed kitchen with a downdraft self-cleaning Jennaire range that has interchangeable plates – 2 burners per plate and one plate with a grill so you can BBQ inside in the winter. The custom Shaker-style cabinets offer both timeless appeal and durability with their melamine finish. There is also a solid element cooktop with a vent, a microwave, a dishwasher, and a stainless-steel fridge. Off the kitchen is a laundry closet with washer and oversized dryer where a dry goods pantry is also located. At the main entrance is a mud room that is wired and insulated and could be heated with an electric baseboard. There is a full undeveloped heated basement with both inside and outside entries. The entire house has high efficiency low-e-argon windows, with windows upstairs that pivot and drop down inside for easy cleaning. A large deck is a great place to BBQ and gather with friends and family, and is surrounded by beautiful, pollinator friendly perennial flower gardens that are anchored by a huge and prolific Golden Transparent apple tree that was planted when the house was built. There are also raspberries, blueberries, cranberries, grapes and lots of other fruit-bearing and flowering bushes and shrubs...
