For Sale: 243 Lakeshore Drive, Hammonds Plains, NS

About this home

Some homes offer a view. This one offers much more. Set on 317 feet of pristine, fishable lake frontage in Kingswood, Nova Scotia, this immaculately maintained 1.5-storey home is where grand design and natural wonder meet on nearly two acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. From the moment you arrive, the intention is clear. A paved driveway winds through mature perennial gardens to a home with undeniable curb appeal. Step inside and cathedral ceilings soar above you, a chandelier glows, and a grand staircase invites you in. The wood-burning fireplace anchors an open dining and living space warmed by in-floor heating - the kind of comfort that feels effortless. The well-appointed kitchen flows out to a generous veranda where lake views and incredible sunsets are simply part of the daily routine. The main-floor primary suite makes one-level living a breeze. Upstairs, the oversized landing serves as an office or reading nook, with spacious bedrooms sharing the scenic panoramic views. The newly finished walkout basement adds flexible living space with room for a media room, home gym, or family lounge. The attached, heated, and wired double-car garage keeps vehicles warm through Nova Scotia winters and leaves plenty of room for kayaks, paddleboards, and workshop space. Recent updates — including a new roof (2023) and hot water tank (2025) — mean there's nothing to add to the to-do list. Outside, a heated 20 × 40 in-ground pool with an 8-foot deep end awaits summer. Beyond it, the lake — alive with fish and wildlife — is yours to explore by kayak or canoe as the light fades gold. Crown Land and the Blue Mountain Wilderness Area offer endless trails and true backcountry quiet, and when everyday life calls, West Bedford's amenities are just minutes away.
