58 Hopson St, Lunenburg, NS B0J 2C0

The Smith House is proudly anchored at the corner of Hopson and Fox in the heart of the historic conservation district of Old Town Lunenburg. A quintessential Lunenburg home, with classic Lunenburg vernacular, right down to the signature bump. This 2900 sq. ft., 4 bedroom home, with an additional one-bedroom private suite, is brimming with original detail and character, inside and out. Impressive street presence with architectural features intact, and an interior to match; softwood floors, wide baseboard, window & door trims, high ceilings with plaster cornices & ornate medallions, and an elegant staircase that leads all the way to the attic. The kitchen was sensitively redesigned and renovated with new appliances, beautiful hand-hewn granite countertops and a custom vintage oak island - all adding to the unique character of this century home. The Smith House is more than a homage to stately Victorian detailing and craftsmanship; beneath the restored plaster walls and refinished softwood floors, this home has been thoroughly and extensively updated; an excellent hot water heating system with beautiful refurbished cast iron rads (with individual heating controls) and in-floor radiant on the lower level. The insulated walls, ceilings, toasty wood stove, and newer windows ensure additional comfort and efficiency. Electrical and plumbing are up to date, and even the chimneys have been rebuilt from top to bottom. 58 Hopson also features a fully self-contained in-law suite on the garden level, with full-sized windows and great natural light. The private back garden with a custom built cedar sauna and hand crafted brass and copper outdoor shower; a scarce offering for a Lunenburg character home. All within an easy walk to the waterfront and the many amenities and services, this historic town has to offer. The Smith House, 58 Hopson - a property that truly has it all. 2022-07-05
