1169 Little Harbour Rd, Shelburne, NS B0T 1V0

Want to know what all the fuss about Nova Scotia is about? Look no further than 1169 Little Harbour Road where the ocean and history meet to bring you this impeccably restored home fit for only the worthiest Sea Captain this side of the Atlantic Ocean. Built in the 1800s by a settling member of the area, the home has taken on many owners over the years, but none quite as rewarding as its current owner who has reestablished this historic home in this quaint fishing community of Nova Scotia. This journey began almost a decade ago as a project but quite quickly became a labor of love for a local couple, one of which is an ancestor of the original owner. Attention has been paid to every last detail including the rope that fills the spaces between floor boards, the inset of tin ceiling above the oversized island in the kitchen and the balcony off the master bedroom overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, while holding onto key historic elements such as the original fireplace with a pot arm. The grounds will not disappoint with over 6 acres of field and a custom laid stone terrace off of the kitchen. And don't forget the bonus oceanfront lot only a 5 minute walk from the front door boasting over 200' of oceanfront and a quick stroll from a white sand beach. This beauty is going to give you the character of a heritage home but the convenience of modern living. The living space is open and airy and charming and warm. Upon entering the home, look up and see the open cathedral ceiling resembling that of a ship's hull. The main floor consists of a dining room, living room, sun room with stone floors, large kitchen complete with butcher block island and pot filler above the stove. You will also find a guest bedroom, laundry and 3 piece bathroom on this floor. Second level has a guest room, 4 piece bath with clawfoot tub and custom tiled shower as well as the master bedroom with a walkout balcony looking out to the ocean. This is a must see!
