This classic 1885 residence with signature Lunenburg Bumps on both front and back features a traditional layout, an abundance of original detail, and a quiet Old-Town location.
The interior was recently stripped to the studs and thoroughly rejuvenated. Beneath fresh new surfaces is new insulation and completely updated electrical with extensive pot lighting. Beautifully refinished softwood floors throughout unite elegant principal rooms on the main floor, including a formal parlour with new propane fireplace, separate dining room, and a stylish new Kitchen with large island and propane cooktop. The Kitchen enjoys easy access to the back deck overlooking the garden and there is a sunny breakfast nook tucked into the main floor back bump.
Upstairs find four good sized bedrooms including the Master with its wall of additional built-in storage, a bright new family bath and another wonderful sitting area in the back bump.
Need more living space? No problem…the finished walk-up attic offers plenty of room for your home office, hobbies & crafts, or TV retreat. And from the skylights you can even catch a glimpse of ships coming into the famous harbour.
But that's not all, a high and dry basement with garden level walkout offers excellent storage or workshop space, or conversion potential for a separate guest suite.
The compact yard typical of Old-Town provides just enough garden to supply herbs for the salad and fresh flowers for the table, and is fully fenced with ample lawn for Rover. A matching garage is ideal storage for the yard tools or perhaps develop this charming building into an artist’s garden studio.
Come enjoy the best of both worlds…character & charm combined with comfort & efficiency. All this in a convenient location just a lazy 5 minute stroll to the bustling downtown, a peaceful setting smack dab in the middle of one of the prettiest neighbourhoods you'll ever find!
