10 Sunset Dr, Smiths Cove, NS B0S 1S0

Be prepared to fall in love with this light-filled, contemporary home in the picturesque hamlet of Smiths Cove. A short stroll will take you to a community beach and several kms of walking and biking trails, and you're just 10 minutes' drive from all amenities in the bustling Town of Digby. Originally built circa 1900, this house is now like new, having been completely re-built from the studs in 2016 and further updated in the past year, without sacrificing the warmth and character of a traditional home. The main living area is open plan, yet cleverly separated into distinct spaces for kitchen, dining and living. The large central chimney has a wood-burning insert facing the living area on one side, and a big butcher block peninsula/breakfast bar on the other. Plenty of room for a large dining table by the south-facing window. You'll find lots of built-in storage and a stacking washer-dryer in the powder room closet. The main floor bedroom is currently being used as a home office, which also has a door out to the fenced yard. A set of pocket doors off the living room open to a 4-season sunroom with deck access on either end. You'll find a nook for office or hobbies, and space to relax with a glass of wine and watch the changing light on the landscape. In winter, the view opens up to reveal more of the Annapolis Basin in the distance. A wide staircase takes you to the 2nd floor, which has vaulted ceilings and a well-appointed primary bedroom with walk-in closet, and nice views of the Basin over the treetops. There is also a second bedroom on this level. Your favorite room will likely be the 4-piece bathroom with giant soaking tub and generous custom tiled shower! The house sits on a hill in the middle of a generous 2/3 acre lot surrounded by mature trees and gardens. Lots of privacy, paved driveway, expansive back yard with a storage shed, plus a large, fenced side yard that makes an excellent dog run.
