Sea Breeze and Water Views ~ This large older home has weathered many storms, experienced many ocean breezes and summer days on this beautiful island known as 'the gateway to the Bay of Fundy'. Only a few minutes from the ferry slip, within walking distance of the local general store with café, NSLC outlet, gas pumps, hostel, whale watch expeditions, and not far from the Joshua Slocum monument and the road to the beach. This home can accommodate many as it has three bedrooms on the second floor and another room that could be made into a bedroom. The main level has an eat-in kitchen, dining room, bedroom, bathroom, living room and mudroom. Of course, there are two stairways to the second level! One is the formal front staircase and the other leads down to the kitchen area. Newer windows frame the views of the Grand Passage. This home seems to welcome you to come in and relax. Feel the cooling breezes from the water as you drift off to sleep. Wake up refreshed and ready to hike some trails, explore the beach at Pond Cove, or go to visit the rocky shoreline where the Northern Head Lighthouse is located. Brier Island is known as one of Canada's important bird areas. Peter's Island, at the southeastern tip of the island, is protected by the Nature Conservancy of Canada. Over 300 hundred species of birds visit this island as it is a gathering spot for migrating birds. 2021-04-08
