Presenting two homes in pristine condition, built with high end materials and thoughtful architectural design, on a gorgeous 1.7-acre pastoral setting.
Upon entering the main house, the living room has a bright ambiance with large windows throughout. Design features abound; a stately fireplace mantle, polished concrete flooring, shiplap walls, inset ceiling lighting and high ceilings. Moving into the dining/kitchen space, high end finishes are apparent, American Range gas stove, thoughtfully appointed cabinetry, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, and pendant lighting over the island. There is a great option for meals – seating for four at the island or six at the dining table. Further down is the den which could also be a ground floor primary bedroom, complete with ensuite and closet. A screened in sunroom is the perfect transition to outdoors.
Upstairs are two grand bedrooms, featuring dormered skylights and a shared five-piece bathroom, complete with claw foot tub, as well as a balcony with spectacular views of the adjacent equestrian property.
Energy efficiency was in mind when the main home was built in 2011. Featuring a slab foundation with in-floor radiant heating on a low cost “time of use” power consumption system.
So many additional attributes make this property in a class all its own; expansive barbecue deck off the sunroom, supply sheds, vegetable garden, fire pit, and a destination deck under a canopy of trees. If that hasn’t got your attention so far…. there is an additional 665-foot three-bedroom tiny home. It is a perfect addition to the property for guests, extended family, or optional rental income to pay for a mortgage.
Chester is a singular village where everything is possible, including fine art at the Chester Art Centre, theatre at the Chester Playhouse, dockside seafood chowder at the Rope Loft, lattes at the Kiwi Café, fine dining at the Sunroom, sailing at the Chester Yacht Club, tall tales at the Focsle Tavern, relaxation at the Sensea Nordic Spa, fresh produce from the Farmer’s Market, hiking and cycling on The Rum Runners Trail, and sports at the Chester Tennis, Curling & Golf Clubs; all this capped by a quick 45-minute drive to the city of Halifax thanks to Highway 103’s so called twinning completion.
