Property Description
Nestled on a quiet, safe street, is this beautifully landscaped 1.3-acre waterfront property offering privacy, tranquility, and breathtaking ocean views. It is located in the charming coastal village of Port Medway. The grounds are truly exceptional, adorned with mature trees, vibrant shrubs, and perennial flower beds that add colour and charm throughout the seasons. The home is perched at the top of a gently sloping lot, providing elevated views of the gardens, the wharf & the Atlantic Ocean beyond. A true rarity, the property features its own well-maintained wharf and adjacent slipway, providing direct access to the water. At low tide, there is approximately 14 feet of water at the mooring — ideal for larger recreational boats. A 16-foot ramp and 10x20-foot float are no longer there but the existing underwater weights remain in place, ready for a future installation. The main floor features a modern kitchen with a large family dining area complete with a propane fireplace, a spacious living room with an office nook, along with two inviting bedrooms, a renovated bathroom and a large laundry room that could be upgraded to a second bathroom. Upstairs, a loft bedroom opens to a private balcony that offers sweeping views of the gardens, the wharf, and Port Medway Harbour. The insulated crawl space and heat pump add energy efficiency and comfort. If the power goes out - no problem. The home has a propane powered 17kw Cummins generator that was installed in 2022. Previously there was a wood stove in the living room which could be replaced if desired. Furniture can be negotiated as part of the sale. Four outbuildings on the property provide ample room for storage, hobbies, &gardening. Two of these sheds are wired, making them perfect for workshops or studio use. This peaceful retreat is just a short stroll to the village park, local store and gift shop.
