Property Description

Set along nearly 200 feet of white sandy oceanfront on St. Margarets Bay, this cape-style residence on 1.4 acres offers an exceptional setting for life by the sea. Sprawling lawns, fruit trees, and a private boardwalk leading directly to the shoreline create an immediate sense of seclusion and effortless beach access. Inside, the home is designed to carry the same relaxed connection to its seaside setting. Unobstructed ocean views capture attention from nearly every room. Douglas fir beams, cathedral ceilings, solid wood mouldings and cabinetry throughout shape the main living spaces, complemented by an inviting and well considered kitchen featuring quartz countertops, a generous island, and a dedicated coffee bar. The main-level primary retreat boasts sweeping garden and ocean views with an oversized walk-in closet, while cherry hardwood floors add a timeless touch upstairs. Four comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, in-floor heating, and a propane fireplace complete the interior. Recent updates include a brand-new septic system, new thermal panes, a new furnace, and an on-demand hot water heater. Outside, the setting unfolds from a heated swimming pool and refreshing outdoor shower to an inviting oceanside campfire area. The covered patio serves as an inviting extension of the home for morning coffee or al fresco dining, while expansive lawns and private shoreline make launching a boat or kayak effortless. Beyond the property, the community of Hubbards offers plenty to fill a calendar. Saturday mornings bring the popular seasonal Farmers Market. Sailing, extensive hiking and biking trails, golf, oceanside dining and evenings at the Shore Club are all part of the area's relaxed coastal character. Downtown Halifax is within 45 minutes allowing you to enjoy the pace and character of coastal living without feeling far removed from the capital city. A one of a kind property in a community where life is meant to be lived outside and on the water. (id:7434)
