With a generous set-back from the road, this home, set in the center of a double lot (approximately .62 acres), offers an exceptional lifestyle at the heart of one of the most beautiful small towns in Atlantic Canada, Mahone Bay by the sea. The property is level walking to everything one could need: grocery store, post office, bank, restaurants and cafes, boutiques, liquor store, micro brewery, government marina and the famed "Three Churches". This home, less than 11 years of age, reads like new and has one of the most well thought designs in contemporary one floor living. The house has two large foyers: one which graciously opens from the front door with a formal living-room and dining-room to the right; the second accessed from an attached double-car garage with large designated laundry to the right and utility room to the left as one enters the home. The most effective, simple and practical designs are often the rarest to have been conceived and this particular design is "right on point". A broad "L" shaped hall adjoining both foyers separates the common living areas from the three bedrooms and two baths. The kitchen/family/breakfast room design is open concept and welcomes informal family living into one "L" shaped space - all graced by an inviting propane fireplace. Nine foot ceilings enhance the spaciousness of the design with two large guest rooms sharing a family bath and a large primary suite boasting ensuite bath and large walk-in closet. The private back garden area has lots of room for entertaining and features the sweetest garden shed ever conceived. The rear of the property, which is treed, has direct access to the "Rails To Trails" - a decided asset for the cyclist and those seeking a place to jog or simply to take quiet walks surrounded by nature. With in-floor radiant heat, ductless heat-pump and a low maintenance, energy-efficient construction, this newer home allows independence with ease and is priced well under replacement value.
