Charming Historic Oceanfront Home. Step back in time with this beautiful 3 storey Victorian masterpiece, showing off a unique blend of Second Empire and Italianate architectural styles. Built in the mid 1800s, this home is one of the oldest in the seaside town of Lockeport. The west-facing house is situated on a ¼ acre lot with water views. A 1.6 acre lot behind the house would be perfect for building your dream home, or just simply preserve it as your backyard retreat. Offering elevated views of the ocean and a gentle slope down to 135 feet of serene white sand beachfront facing east, it is ideal for taking in the gorgeous sunrises, swimming, fishing, and kayaking. The striking mansard roof, curved-top dormers, and intricate woodwork give this home unique character. The spacious interior offers 8 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, dining room, living room, office, and laundry; providing ample space for large families. The full bathroom, laundry, and office that can serve as a 9th bedroom, are all conveniently located on the main floor, offering the option for single-level living. A single-car garage with an attached storage shed offers potential for conversion into a two-car bay. Whether you're dreaming of a bed-and-breakfast, duplex, a family retreat, or simply restoring this historic gem, the possibilities are endless. Situated on a quiet street, within walking distance to shops, restaurants, schools, amenities, and white sand beaches, including the famous Crescent Beach, Col Locke?s Beach, and Freddy?s Beach. Enjoy exploring Rood?s Head Park and beach just down the road, and take in the elevated oceanic views. Halifax is only a 2 hour drive away. High speed FibreOp Internet is available.
