If you are looking for a very unique two bedroom home, minutes from one of Nova Scotia’s most vibrant village, this new listing on the edge of Tatamagouche may be for you. It’s ideally situated down a tree lined road, maintained by the province, but it feels like your own private lane. The 9.8 acre property is completely private yet just a 20 minute walk into town, along a groomed trail. If you prefer to bike or drive, it’s just minutes away. The house was custom built for the present owners 15 years ago. It was designed to be energy efficient, comfortable and very cozy. The home offers 1560 ft.² of living space spread over two floors. The lower level includes a foyer, large systems room and multipurpose room fitted with a Murphy bed. The present owners use this as a family room and when guests come, it’s a spacious, sunny bedroom with ensuite bathroom. The main level has a vaulted ceiling finished with pine. This level has hidden laundry, a full bathroom, spacious master bedroom with skylight, very sunny open concept living, dining and kitchen which opens to a screen room and expansive raised deck. The views are amazing and provides unobstructed views over the land and the mountain in the distance. Oh, and I should mention, because the ceiling on this level is about 16 feet high, the owners had a local craftsman build a treehouse over the kitchen. Up here it’s like another world … ideal for your home office, study or creative adventures. Exceptional systems including in-floor hot water radiant heating, 200 amp electrical, solar system with 26 panels, drilled well, C2 septic system, Rheem high efficiency hot water heater and high speed internet. ICF foundation. Hardie plank exterior siding and metal roof. There's a 33 x 11 carport and 10 x 20 greenhouse. Did I mention how energy efficient this home is . . . total power for heat and lights in 2024 averaged $98 a month and that included power to fuel their electric car.
