HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT! – Set well off the road at the crest of a gentle hill, this special property provides the ultimate combination of privacy & stellar views. The remarkable 27 acre parcel is one of the last large acreages in coveted Prince's Inlet. From your private hilltop observatory, you look out over fields to the Inlet, Herman's Island & the Lunenburg Yacht Club – enjoy gorgeous views & the activity of colourful sailboats in summer. The classic Lunenburg Bump farmhouse has had extensive upgrades over recent years and bright rooms with exposed timbers & wide plank floors infuse the home with character & warmth. The main floor living space centers around the front-to-back living room with its stone fireplace. A pretty country kitchen flanks a cozy den with French door walkout to a sunny back patio area, and a spacious Dining Room is perfectly suited for large family gatherings. 3 sun-filled Bedrooms upstairs including a generous Primary with walk-in closet & 3-pc ensuite. The finished attic boasts the best view in the house...a great office or hobby space. The impressive country estate includes 8 acres of pastureland & 19 acres of woodland with interesting topography and a creek running through it. At the back of the house is a newly resurrected pond where you can enjoy a skate in winter. The large sturdy barn with concrete floor presents a host of opportunities. And it doesn't end there...halfway back into the property's beautiful woodland there's a rustic cabin, where the only sights & sounds are those of nature...or the crackling of a fire in the woodstove. A rare property in a premium location, this is the perfect opportunity for the aspiring 'gentleman farmer' with dreams of horses or a vineyard, perhaps an agrotourism venture, or just a private country home for those seeking a quiet lifestyle without being too remote. This sought-after location lies part way between the amenity rich coastal communities of Lunenburg & Mahone Bay, and just an hour to HRM.
