living. Step inside and your eyes are immediately drawn to the wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that fills the home with natural light. Cathedral ceilings create an incredible sense of openness, while the ever-changing views become part of everyday life. The open-concept living and dining area flows effortlessly to the wrap-around Duradek, decking, creating the perfect space to entertain or simply enjoy the quiet. In the kitchen, an Enterprise wood-burning cookstove adds warmth and character, complemented by updated appliances. The thoughtful layout offers a total of 4- bedrooms and 2.5- baths, including a main-level primary suite with ensuite. The bright walkout lower-level features 9-foot ceilings, two bedrooms, a full bath, and generous storage with room to expand if desired. Above the main living area, a charming loft provides the perfect office, reading nook, or creative space, with even more hidden storage beyond. Quality craftsmanship is evident throughout, from the custom built-ins and rich wood finishes to the handcrafted compass rose inlaid into the hardwood flooring. Wood and oil combination heating adds comfort and efficiency year-round. Outside, mature trees, flowering gardens, and fruit-bearing shrubs surround the home in privacy, while the wired double garage offers excellent space for vehicles, hobbies, or a workshop. Architecturally distinctive without sacrificing comfort, this is a home that feels tucked away while remaining just minutes from the cafés, boutiques, waterfront, and charm of Mahone Bay. The kind of place that invites you to slow down and wonder why you didn’t move her sooner. (id:62650)
