A tranquil woodland setting with 178 feet of direct saltwater frontage on sheltered Back Passage awaits the next owner of this much-loved Heckman's Island home. The 23-year-old house was thoughtfully positioned within its natural surroundings to take in lovely views from every angle. The home is well-maintained and offers more than 1600 sq feet of living space over 2 levels with additional storage space in the heated crawl space basement. The main floor features a delightful Living Room with cathedral ceiling, wood floors, wood stove and a large Palladian arched window that beautifully frames the view of the woods and water. Also on the main level is the Kitchen and adjoining Dining Room, Laundry Room, and a private Den which would also make a wonderful main level Bedroom with a full bath just down the hall. Upstairs, find a second full bath plus 2 more spacious Bedrooms including the sunny primary bedroom with high ceilings, walk-in closet, and pretty views of the water through evergreens.
The level lot enjoys just enough natural woodland buffer to ensure privacy on either side, and across the water are protected crown lands to preserve this idyllic natural environment. Enjoy quiet time outdoors relaxing on the large front deck, strolling the lawn or puttering in the garden area. Better yet, use the path to the shore and gentle slipway to put in your canoe or kayak and explore the fascinating and sheltered waterways of Back Passage, Tanners Pass, Stonehurst and beyond. Heckman’s Island is truly a paddlers' paradise, just 8 minutes by car from Lunenburg, and not much more than that by kayak!
Whether you’re seeking a cottage getaway or a year-round home in a peaceful setting, you’ll find just what you’re looking for here, at the water’s edge.
