L&S #1271. Captivating coastal cape nestled in a picturesque South Shore fishing village - how quintessentially Nova Scotian! Brimming with character, original features include double parlours with 9 over 6 windows and ornate mouldings, massive brick hearth in the keeping room (equipped with efficient woodstove), beautiful hand-hewn bannister and newel post, front and back stairs, some H&L hinges and original hardware, and wide plank floors. The kitchen-dining area is spacious and light filled. Recently added main floor primary bedroom with separate entrance, ensuite bath and exposed ceiling beams leads to a covered verandah offering the option of vacation rental or in-law suite. Upstairs are two large bedrooms and a generous foyer with sliding doors to a rooftop deck with views of the harbour in the distance. A bonus (kids love it) is a 16x10 secret hideaway off one of the bedrooms (not full height). Among the upgrades over the last year are new septic system, landscaping, addition of primary suite, some flooring & windows, interior painting & decor and some lovely wood accents. A level and spacious backyard with lush apple tree and 16x10 saltbox shed complete the package. Move in ready! Steeped in history, Port Medway is a vibrant, friendly and walkable year round community and home to many artists and craftspeople, a post office, wharf (think lobster), Seely Hall, The Lighthouse Park, Old Meeting House and Old Port Medway Cemetery (both provincial heritage sites), Medway Head Lighthouse and immensely popular Seaport Gifts. There’s an annual Readers Festival, historical events, arts & crafts shows - lots to explore and plenty to keep you entertained. Its a few minutes drive or a leisurely bike ride to white sand beaches at Eagle Head and Beach Meadows. Hospital, shops, services, theater and more are within a 15 minute drive in nearby Liverpool. Ninety minutes to Halifax. Note: As with many vintage capes, bedroom windows may not meet current code for egress.
