The kitchen and dining area flow effortlessly into a cozy living room, where a pellet stove creates the perfect ambiance for relaxing evenings. A bright sunroom and additional family room offer multiple spaces to unwind and take in the natural surroundings. A main-floor bedroom and a beautifully appointed 3-piece bath with heated floors add comfort and flexibility to the layout. Upstairs, youll find additional bedrooms including a spacious primary retreat complete with walk-in closet and 4-piece ensuite, plus another full 4-piece bath, ideal for family or guests.

The lower level provides storage, laundry, and access to the garage. Outdoors, the property truly shines with a private setting, a peaceful creek running behind the shop on the south side and then Waugh river running along the property line, approximately 6 acres of woodland, and plenty of space to explore or enjoy. A large insulated workshop with 220 power is perfect for hobbyists or additional storage. The attached garage with in-floor heat, durable asphalt roof (only 4 years old with transferable 50-year warranty), and numerous thoughtful updates complete the package. Rich in history and rebuilt with care following the original farmhouse, this property offers a rare blend of character, space, and modern comfort, an ideal retreat or year-round home in a sought-after coastal community.
