62 Howe Street Lockeport, Nova Scotia B0T 1L0

$359,900

An atmosphere of simplicity and elegance characterizes this circa 1878 home, nestled among mature English gardens in a quiet corner of the historic fishing community of Lockeport, a five minute walk from one of the South Shore's most coveted white sand beaches. The Greek Revivalist architecture of the home is evident in a bright interior with tall windows, bold but simple mouldings, and two uniquely ornate fireplaces in the main living and dining rooms. The four bedrooms on the second floor enjoy views of the harbour and gardens, and the main floor den offers the option for an additional bedroom on the main level. Symmetrical patio doors off each side of the kitchen provide access to the gardens, where you can disappear among small groves of fruit trees or retreat with the sound of the surf among a rich array of antique roses. A charming shed in the centre of the garden offers additional storage and plenty of room for your imagination. The Shelburne County Rail Trail system can be accessed around the corner from the property and offers seemingly endless kilometers of picturesque trail for walking and cycling. Lockeport is a welcoming community and provides the convenience of a local grocer, pharmacy, bank, library, liquor store and several good restaurants. The larger town of Shelburne with major amenities and a hospital is 20 minutes away, and the city of Halifax is a two hour drive. High speed Fibreop internet is available. (id:45785)
