Located in the desirable and upscale area of Botany Woods and Fancy Lake, this custom home, on 3.91 manicured acres, is extremely private and well maintained. Built by the current owner, pride of ownership is apparent as you drive through the custom gates, past the manicured lawn, under the soaring pines to this 3 bedroom 1.5 bath raised bungalow. The front façade is western cedar with brick and stone accents, mirroring the property's front gates. The garden level door, next to the double bay garage, enters to a hall and unique comfortable den with wood stove and custom stonework from a local quarry. Upstairs you will find the secondary entrance, a large country kitchen, living room and 1/2 bath with laundry. Down the hall there are three bedrooms, two with walk in closets, a well organized office and a spacious full bath with double sinks. Outside, the park-like grounds has multiply footpaths meandering thoughout the woodland and low maintenance gardens. Specimen trees and shrubs are under a large canopy of a mixed natural forest; beech, oaks, maple, hemlock and pine, all of which are carefully selected and maintained. The rich soil, and mindful silviculture allows for a kingdom of ferns to flourish at the back of the property. Owls, woodpeckers and a multitude of songbirds make their home in here; safe and protected. To the front of the property is the lush green carpet of a lawn and a pond, home to painted turtles and bull frogs and visited the local ducks. Carefully selected antique items are beautifully arranged in the front gardens allowing vines and moss to claim them. At the front corner of the land, a small wetland was assessed and granted protection from development - securing more bio-diversity to this beautiful property. This is a property that speaks to those that know what is important; a quality built home, well maintained grounds, privacy in a peaceful and natural setting. All this natural beauty, peace and tranquility and less than 10 minutes to the Town of Bridgewater, local schools, just 2 minutes to the Fancy Lake swimming park, and within 12 minutes to the ocean and white sand beaches of Crescent Beach and Risser Provincial Park. 2022-08-23
