6405 And 6407 Highway 3, Western Shore

"Where shall we adventure, to-day that we?re afloat, wary of the weather and steering by a star?" The dawn breaks each morning over the sea in front of this home. Looking east to "Treasure Island" and with one of the most beautiful ocean vistas in Lunenburg County, this one level home has been a cherished family retreat for the last thirty years. The outdoor deck and lawn have hosted summer parties for sixty people or more - relaxing and enjoying family and friends against the panoramic sea view. The main living area features a large open concept kitchen dining area with seating at one end. The living room, with its stunning water views features an open fireplace constructed with antique brick. The cathedral ceilings lend to the open feel in the common living areas flanked by a bedroom on each side. The south wing of the home has a spacious, self-contained, one bedroom apartment. The attached garage would be a prime candidate for conversion to an additional suite, and the central owner's suite could itself be subdivided if one felt so inclined. This home is adjacent the former community wharf which is now in private hands therefore boat traffic next to this home is limited, affording desirable privacy. Granite steps lead to your own private pebble beach which is certain to please young family members looking to enjoy summer recreation. A grocery store and restaurant are only a short walk away, Oak Island Resort and Conference Centre two minutes' drive away, and the city of Halifax is less than a one hour drive. The desirability of this location cannot be overstated and, at this price point, certainly a rare find in today's market for direct oceanfront looking across the waters of Greater Mahone Bay to the famed Oak Island.
