$549,000

Welcome to 'The Brooks House' , circa 1860, and located in the Historic Community of Bridgetown , conscientiously restored and meticulously modernized to ensure it remains a steadfast family home for many more generations. From the sanctuary of the third storey bedroom with attached bath and bonus room, you can glean views of the south mountain, from the generous master bedroom watch the incredible sunsets of the valley. At 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, you have choices. The kitchen, formal dining and living room stream with light, creating exceptional communal living spaces while providing flexible living space for modern families. Each bathroom is large, sunny and fully renovated in a way sensitive to the period and utility of a working farmhouse. As you enter the modern kitchen, with original cabinets, antique sink, and exposed beams you can recognize both the quality and craftsmanship of this home, every work surface is practical and beautiful, a full sized walk in pantry is a key part of this kitchen! The yard is just waiting for a vegetable patch or 3, and the courtyard provides a 3 season communal living space for all outdoor activities. The front porch opens onto an original Victorian sunroom, perhaps as a planting and gardening space, helping you to grow flowers to line the original stone wall and brand new in-period fence. One of the many jewels in the crown of this property is the newly rewired, re-roofed, fully plumbed carriage house, which can double as either a garage, workshop or potential live/work space. 1.5 blocks away you find yourself in a village oasis, with parks, banks, grocery store, hardware store, coffee bar, bookstore and many small businesses, and an easy walk to the modern P-12 school and outdoor sports hub, while a 5 min drive id the Bay of Fundy with local seafood available in season! Only 1.5 hours from Halifax, accessible to everything that makes this house a paradise for those seeking calm and respite. Most furniture remains. (id:45785)
