‘One-Level-Living’ doesn’t always mean downsizing or sacrificing the space you want. Take this fabulous property as a prime example. 109 Brook Street is one of the iconic homes of Lunenburg’s popular “New Town” district. The stately 2400 square foot home has for years been admired by residents and visitors alike, and it is available for a new owner for the first time in 35 years.
Meticulously maintained inside and out, the impressive home retains much of its original character including solid wood doors with period hardware, numerous built-ins, curved walls, and stunning hardwood floors throughout. You’ll love the generous proportions of the rooms…in fact, you’ll find that just about every room in the house is over-sized, starting with the sprawling Living Room which features windows on 3 sides and its original wood-burning fireplace. Peek under the carpet and you’ll be pleased to see the same beautiful hardwood as the rest of the house. Bring on the grand piano…this wonderful entertaining space is ready to accommodate! Across the wide hall is the formal dining room with corner cabinet and a swinging butler’s door that leads to the spacious kitchen with large breakfast nook, and a handy powder room tucked under the attic stairs.
The sleeping spaces are just as generous, with a Primary Bedroom measuring an impressive 19’ x 15’, providing ample room for a private sitting area or perhaps to add a luxurious ensuite down the road. There are two additional Bedrooms, one currently serving as a Family Room/Den and is ready for a new woodstove with brick hearth and Selkirk chimney already in place. The sunny full bath with built-in linen closet completes the picture. But, if you’re somehow feeling like you need more living space, the huge walk-up attic with skylights and original eyebrow windows offers potential for another 500+ sq ft to call home. Underneath it all is a massive, high and dry basement with built-in double garage.
And talk about curb appeal…situated in a quiet neighbourhood the handsome home sits proudly on its large 1/3 acre corner lot with mature trees including the majestic old oak that welcomes you at the entrance to the home. At the back of the house is a large and level sun-soaked back yard with a perimeter of trees providing just enough privacy but not diminishing the lovely sunshine of the southern exposure.
