New property listed in 406-Queens County, South Shore

I have listed a new property at 2514 MEDWAY RIVER Road in Riversdale. See details here

6.5 acres in Riversdale, an area that has experienced tremendous growth recently in the cottage sector. In addition to the picturesque Medway River, and its communities such as Bangs Falls, Charleston and historic Mill Village, one is geographically central to the South Shore signature Ponhook and Molega Lake systems to the north and the dozen or so white sand beaches of Lunenburg and Queens counties to the south. Includes a 100’ x 24’ building that was constructed in 1991. Front 50 ft. is a wood barn and a wood stove. Back 50 ft. is steel-reinforced poured concrete, has a concrete slab, 10-inch walls, truss roof, side overhead garage door and 200 amp service. There is also an RV plug in the driveway. A new drilled well was installed in 2021 (220 ft. 2.5 GPM). The older dug well remains, but does not produce potable water, being used as part of the former fish operation. This is a lovely property to take in...with a mixed forest, some large pine, white ash, beech, maple, birch, spruce, fir and a few hemlock. Some fruit trees have also been started. There are two dug ponds and a nice stream running through, an old meadow with a 2nd driveway in middle of the property where the original homestead was located. Given its significant frontage on a year-round road (approx.1000 ft.), this parcel is also an excellent candidate for subdividing.

New property listed in 406-Queens County, South Shore

I have listed a new property at 190 Main Street in Liverpool. See details here

190 Main Street, built in 1895, is instantly recognizable, and one of the most loved and distinctive buildings on the South Shore. This remarkable example of Queen Anne Victorian architecture is strategically located in the centre of Liverpool where Main and Market streets meet, opposite the post office, close to banks, shops and all amenities. A quick stroll through tree lined streets of historic gardens, fine homes and museums leads to a quintessential Maritime lighthouse overlooking the Mersey River as it opens to Liverpool Bay and the open Atlantic Ocean. Tasteful updates and investments have kept the property in excellent condition, while preserving its original charm and character. Heat pumps also provide air conditioning, washer and dryer new in 2023. The property first served the community as the builder’s doctor’s office, later as office space and residential units. Most recently, the 7 units served as a combination of long-term apartment residency combined with short-term vacation and business stays. Layout provides lots of options for a new live-in owner. Main floor has 4 short-term residential units, 2 long-term residential units on the second floor and a residential unit plus large storage unit on the third floor. Liverpool is the heart of the South Shore, an ideal launching point for fine dining, golf, lakes, hiking trails and pick of a dozen white sand beaches, all within a short drive. 90 minutes to Halifax / airport.

Another ‘Jumbo’ Rate Cut from the Bank of Canada! 5 Reasons Why You Need a REALTOR®

The Bank of Canada is now five for the last five on lowering its overnight lending rate, and once again Canadian homeowners and potential buyers will be celebrating a “jumbo rate cut” just in time for the holidays.

I have sold a property at 233 Highway 8 in Milton

I have sold a property at 233 Highway 8 in Milton on Dec 31, 2024. See details here

While this 2-bedroom, 1.5 bath bungalow in the picturesque village of Milton is move-in ready, it is impossible not to imagine the potential realized through a cosmetic renovation. Eat-in Kitchen offers a traditional entry door plus patio doors leading to a deck offering stunning water and property views, and stairs leading to the large back yard and waterfront. Living room is a nice size and features a lovely fireplace and brick hearth. Completing the main level are two good size bedrooms, a full bath and a den ~ home office that offers great potential to add a third bedroom on the main level. The partially finished basement is also a great candidate for full development. Featuring a family room area (with wood stove) plus a half-bath, the addition of patio or garden doors would take full advantage of the fantastic water view from the current walk-out doors. This route could be particularly attractive to those seeking a short-term rental unit, or to simply increase living space. One can fish, canoe and kayak from the backyard, and at low-tide, gain access to the Mersey River, Liverpool waterfront and toward the open ocean. This home has so many pluses...the waterfront setting on an arm of the Mersey River feels rustic, vacation-like...yet you are less than a five-minute drive to Liverpool and all amenities.
