Welcome to “Steepleview Cottage” – named so for it’s outlook over the three iconic churches on the Mahone Bay waterfront. Come view this charming and finely appointed home situated within easy walking distance to all the amenities (restaurants, pubs, grocery, dental, medical, pharmacy, mail) the town offers, but just far enough off Main St to be peaceful. Sit on the front porch and enjoy glimpses of the harbour. The view of the yard - 1/3 acre - with its many species of trees and a babbling brook is park-like. Every room was renovated and the home transformed into a four-bedroom, two full bath with main floor master and ensuite. The historic character of this c. 1886 home was respected while at the same time, upgraded and updated. The baths were gutted and redone to include new Kohler comfort-height toilets, vanities, lighting, mirrors, ceramic and porcelain flooring and Zitta showers with sliding glass doors. You’ll swoon over the new shiplap walls, tongue & groove ceilings and wide pine and hemlock floors. The kitchen now features a custom contemporary kitchen by Amos Wood - including plenty of storage and clever hidden drawers, quartz counters, maple plate shelves and a gorgeous maple, waterfall counter on the work island. Sliding barn-style doors in the kitchen reveal the pantry, laundry and coat storage. All new stainless, Bosch appliances in the kitchen and LG ventless washer/drier in the laundry complete the stunning transformation. The main floor spaces include custom linen curtains and Roman blinds. All lighting was updated. Additional insulation was added including spray foam throughout the crawlspace. Some new windows, exterior lighting, and an exterior coat of Benjamin Moore solid-hide stain give this home its inviting curb appeal. The stand-alone garage could be transformed into a tiny home with Airbnb/VRBO rental income; a yoga or art studio; a cute retail shop; or guest home.
