1121 Blue Rocks Rd, Lunenburg, NS B0J 2C0

This property, backing on the common lands, has the amazing grace of a south-west exposure with sweeping views over the waters of all Lunenburg Bay. The classic fisherman's Cape style of the home was originally designed for a noted local artist and his family, and the positioning of the house, on a promontory against a natural backdrop looking out to sea, was thoughtfully considered through a landscape-painter's eye. The house consists of a central hall plan and the overall layout would be easily adaptable to the individual family's needs. Its features include a large open concept kitchen-family room with a rear mudroom entry and ocean-view breakfast nook. The formal dining room could easily exchange functions with the den at the rear of kitchen if a new owner wished to have a more formal living-room at the front of the house. There is a powder room discretely tucked away at the rear of the central hall adjacent a separate laundry. The rear of house has a generous sized office which could also serve as a media room. From this office one enters a breezeway (with separate entry to the rear parking area) connecting to a spacious, casual living room - once the public gallery for the artist in residence. The second floor offers 3 large bedrooms, an ensuite bath with custom shower and an additional family bath. The basement of this home has high ceilings and full-walkout double doors ideal for a boater or woodworker. There is both a ductless heat pump and an oil-burning hot-water furnace. A new generator panel has been installed. Located just two minutes drive from Lunenburg town centre, this exceptional offering affords maximum privacy, big-ocean views and convenient public access to the beach across a country road - a short walk from the house. If you can imagine: the gentle sound of the waves as the family relaxes around the firepit and watches the sunset as the last sail of the day of the Bluenose returns home...this property is an opportunity in today's market. 2022-07-04
