Presenting a quaint custom-built home with a focus on energy efficiency and fabulous ocean views. The main floor is architecturally sited with a wall of new Marvin windows (2016), maximizing passive solar heating in the winter and opening an elevated view straight down the end of the St. Margaret’s Bay. A full home ducted Moovair heat pump (2023) keeps things cozy in the winter and cool in the summers. This contemporary home design features new kitchen cabinetry with quartz countertops, Bosch gas stovetop and appliances, living room with wood stove (2017), open dining space with exposed timber beams, convenient powder room and a generously sized front foyer with plenty of closet space. As you walk up to the second floor, you will notice new flooring throughout including maple banister and stairwell (2016). The twelve-foot vaulted ceiling accentuates the light and 1845 square feet of living area. Three bedrooms and an ensuite bathroom, walk in closet and laundry room are conveniently laid out for all access. The third bedroom would also make a great den or study. A very private well treed location for nature enthusiasts, this property has close to three quarters of an acre adjacent to the rails for trails on a dead-end street. A great deal of landscaping improvements have been underway since the owners have acquired this property. These additions provide more comfortable surroundings; a 24 x 14 sundeck (2017), paved driveway and parking pad (2021), exterior cedar shakes (2016), storage/woodshed, and metal roof installation (2011). Located just down the way from the Bike and Bean Cafe and a few minutes from Upper Tantallon’s amenities. The Head of St. Margaret’s Bay is centrally positioned to South Shore’s famous beaches, marinas, and yacht clubs. Halifax is less than a half hour drive from the property.
