About this home

Built with insulated concrete form construction and a geothermal ducted heating/cooling system, this bungalow in peaceful Karsdale, Nova Scotia was designed from the ground up for energy efficiency - and it delivers on every front. Perched above the Annapolis Basin with 94 feet of water frontage, the south-facing views (which also allow for excellent passive solar heating) are outstanding and relentless: seals loll on the rocks, seabirds wheel overhead, the tides come and go twice daily like old friends, and the light at sunrise through the wall of windows on the main living level is frankly unfair. Direct shore access means beach walks, swimming, and kayaking are not aspirations here - they're Tuesday. The 0.92-acre lot is a garden lover's labour of love, layered with ornamental plantings, fruit trees, and sitting areas positioned to catch the view from every angle. The 2,600+/- sq ft home, built in 2004, has been thoughtfully and substantially upgraded over the past five years: cedar shake siding, all new windows, vinyl plank flooring, a renovated main bathroom with an oversized shower, and a purpose-built, insulated, wired 4-season art studio and workshop addition that is simply one of the best creative spaces to come to market in Annapolis County in recent memory. The open-plan main floor features a vaulted ceiling, garden doors to the deck, and a Pacific Energy wood stove for the cool evenings when the Basin takes on that pewter light that painters love. The primary bedroom on the main floor has a walk-in closet and quick access to the new bath. The fully developed lower level has its own entrance, sea views, a second bathroom with sauna, an additional bedroom & den, storage room, and large family room - ideal for extended family, guests, or short-term rental use. Located just 15 minutes to the many popular amenities of Annapolis Royal. (id:63626)
