Participate in the "Riverfront Renaissance" at Shipyard Landing in the Town of Bridgewater ! This sweet Victorian, built in the latter part of the 1800's, has great potential and is brimming with old-time character. The house has a generous size back yard and is located directly across from a riverside park, Shipyard Landing. There is a public, paved slipway on salt water across the road from the house, just a few steps from the front door, providing access by a 9 mile cruise down river to the waters of greater Mahone Bay . The house has an old fashioned front porch across its front with appealing river views through the park. The main floor has good flow of a classic four-square design: staircase in the front corner with living-room to the left, and kitchen and dining-room at the back. There is a half bath off the front foyer tucked beneath the stairs, and three bedrooms with full shared family bath on the second floor. Recent improvements are: new windows, a double-headed, ductless heat-pump, a new electrical panel and eavestroughs. The house has a sidewalk directly in front and is level walking to amenities which include a shopping mall with large stores, banks and Lunenburg County's only movie theatre. The upper portion of the back yard would be a good candidate for a vegetable garden. This would make a great, first-time family home or retirement home, and due to its excellent location would make a sound investment - a lifestyle-property in old-town Bridgewater. Just a few minutes drive from the regional hospital, the commercial shopping hub of Lunenburg County, and less than fifteen minutes from beautiful sand beaches ! For the boater or someone who likes to walk, simply the ideal location.
