Property Description
Sanctuary at the Edge of the Village - Down a tree lined driveway, the setting of this home is like a sanctuary, at the edge of the village of Chester. It's unusual to have an acre lot in the village. The property includes mature trees, ferns and shrubs, with two brooks running along both boundary lines. This peaceful setting, combined with the sound of the brooks flowing from Stanford Lake is like a fairyland. The property is overgrown, but with vision, some selective trimming and a plan, this "secret garden" could be brought back to life, and offer a new family privacy, within walking distance of all village amenities. Circa 1857, this two storey home has a traditional floor plan with a central staircase, 3 bedrooms, and 1 bath on the 2nd level. The attic is accessible. The original doors, trims, painted hard/soft wood floors all add interesting character. The large windows bring lots of natural light into almost every room. Off the kitchen there is a single storey storage ell, connected to a workshop. There is a detached 2 bay garage (25'6 x 31') with wood plank floors, including a storage area. Both the house/ garage require work (ie new kitchen, bathroom, refinishing the floors, electrical, plumbing etc) complete restoration. This is an estate sale. Only a few village blocks to both Chester's Front and Back Harbour, just down the road from the shopping area (grocery, hardware, pharmacy). Our Health Centre, schools and the neighbouring Rails to Trails. Chester offers an Art Centre, Playhouse, seaside golf course, tennis, hockey/ skating/ curling complex, and more on Nova Scotia's treasured South Shore, 30 minutes to Bridgewater, 45 minutes to Halifax, and an hour from Stanfield International Airport. This property is not within the area for the Federal Ban on Foreign Buyers. (id:24570)
