71 West Side Road, Greens Harbour

Welcome to your storybook escape by the sea - an enchanting ocean-view beach house tucked into the charm of Green’s Harbour. This beautifully restored home exudes character, craftsmanship, and comfort - perfect as a year-round residence or a place of quiet retreat. Set on over 1/2 acre across two lots, the property is bordered by a hand-built rock wall, the land is dotted with mature birch trees, and a white picket fence reflects a stream’s soft trickle. The home itself, painted in a cheerful soft yellow with crisp white trim and a dark, contrasting roof, stands proudly on the gently sloping land. A practical gravel driveway leads to the side of the home, and the expansive second lot offers abundant open, grassy space. A concrete walkway leads from the road to the main entrance and the covered front porch - an ideal spot for morning coffee as the sun rises over the water. Originally built in 1928, the home underwent a full remodel down to the studs in 2012 and has been thoughtfully upgraded with a new septic system, spray foam insulation in the foundation and attic, fiberglass wall insulation, and a full HRV system. A main-floor mini-split heat pump offers efficient heating and cooling, complemented by electric baseboard heaters throughout. Inside, you're welcomed into a warm, functional kitchen with handcrafted touches and space for casual dining. Soft blues and gentle yellows throughout the home, paired with carefully chosen finishes, create a cozy and comforting atmosphere the moment you enter. Just beyond, a spacious formal dining room, where gleaming hardwood floors reflect the light from a classic chandelier suspended above a large wooden dining table, creates an inviting space for memorable meals. Adjacent, a cozy living room, and a front sitting room - often a guest favorite - invite you to unwind and take in the view. A full main-floor bathroom includes a walk-in shower, and the lower level, boasting polished wood-toned flooring and bright walls, offers extensive additional storage, visibly housing the efficient HRV system and convenient shelving units. Upstairs, three beautifully styled bedrooms offer their own charm and comfort. The front room features vaulted ceilings and ocean views in classic beach house style; the second is bright and airy with a backyard view; the third is anchored by elegant crown moldings and timeless appeal. A second full bathroom with a clawfoot tub completes the upper level. Crafted for those who value coziness, warmth, and relaxation, this home is not just a getaway - it’s where you come to feel whole. (id:1945)
