This stately old home of Captain Stanley Hines was built in 1890 and has been well cared for over the generations, keeping the historic features intact. Some original features include the pressed tin ceiling in the living room, the original plank flooring, doors, and trim! The current owners have affectionately named this historic home, "The Mariners House" and have had successful 5 star ratings on Airbnb... check out all the wonderful reviews of the home! The current owners have completely renovated the back portion of the house, which was previously an old workshop, into a modern concept self contained living area complete with a new kitchen, new bathroom, new flooring throughout, and a cozy loft bedroom with spiral staircase. New heat pump for cozy living in the winter, and a/c in the summer. This living space has its own private entrance off a brand new deck. Enjoy outdoor living with a firepit area in the back yard... perfect for gatherings in the summer. Then enjoy the wood burning cedar sauna down the boardwalk. The rail trail runs through the back of the property and goes for miles... great for walking, biking or ATV's. The gardener will enjoy the new 30'x40' vegetable garden ready to be planted in the Spring, along with all the new perennial beds around the property. For the handyman, enjoy the 560sq foot separated workshop with gravel driveway. Complete with new heat pump, new separate electrical panel, fully insulated, new lighting, and painted flooring. Have an RV? No problem, new pad located at back of workshop with electric, and water hookups! Some recent upgrades include a new 200 amp breaker panel, new windows, and some flooring. Convenient location off Hwy 103 with great neighbors! The Argyle area has so much to offer including close proximity to the beaches of Cape Sable Island, the beautiful Tusket Islands, the community of West Pubnico, Provincial parks, and only 20 minutes to the Town of Yarmouth.
