A spectacular elevated home with a 66-foot-long east facing deck overlooking the treasured Mahone Bay Islands and open ocean. The long white sandy Westhavers beach is less than a ¼ km walk, down the shore. The ocean playground is at your feet.
A private oasis with over 200 feet of direct ocean frontage on 3.5 acres of land, and all of it has been fenced in with 8 ft. high locked access gates to stop the deer from feasting on the immaculate gardens. Built in 1970, this mid-century modern designed home has 2657 square feet of living area plus a built-in garage and lower-level workroom/storage areas. This ultimate layout comprises a main residence with two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms and an additional separate two bedroom with a full bathroom suite.
An ideal spot to launch a Laser sailboat, the beach has calm warm waters for swimming in the summer, and more adventurous kayak destinations for island picnics. Cited on a mini drumlin the property is protected from the elements with a sea wall of rock boulders. Landscaped lush green lands have been thoughtfully prepared with precision with a variety of trees and shrubs. The sound of waves and the smell of sea salt is a calming reminder of the Nova Scotia experience.
The interior design focuses on the ocean view with high ceilings and plenty of glass; synonymous with many contemporary structures you would find today. Features include many built in cabinets & shelving, a wood burning fireplace, and oak hardwood flooring. Convenience was top of mind with three interior entrances from the garage to the main foyer, the kitchen, or the secondary suite. The primary suite, living room and the den all showcase the coastal ocean setting and canopy of lush hedges and green lawns. A lower level has two walkouts with a massive recreation space, a spot for a gym, and plenty of storage space.
Maders Cove is a rare oceanfront enclave community around the corner from the shops and restaurants of Mahone Bay. The Lunenburg Yacht Club on Herman’s Island is a few minutes further down the coast. UNESCO Heritage town of Lunenburg is a quick ten-minute drive, and Halifax is just over an hour away.
