I have sold a property at 11 Markland in Brooklyn on Sep 20, 2022. See details here

3 bedroom 1.5 storey family home in Brooklyn, on the outskirts of Liverpool in the heart of Nova Scotia's South Shore. While this property will require some cosmetic finishes, the quality and quiet nature of the neighbourhood, layout, original hardwood floors and woodwork make this an excellent palette from which to create something lovely. The roof was re-shingled about 10 years ago and many windows and the kitchen were updated around that time. Brooklyn is a seaside community with lovely parks and a delightful marina. You are less than 10 minutes to the Town of Liverpool and all amenities, as well as enjoying quick access to Hwy #103 to Bridgewater (20 min.) or Halifax / International Airport (90 minutes).

I have sold a property at 370 Highway 8 in Milton on Nov 30, 2021. See details here

Outstanding 4 / 5 bedroom, 2-bath historic home perched on a 1.5-acre waterfront parcel on the picturesque Mersey River. Constructed in the early 1850s by James Augustus Freeman, it remained in the lumber-industry family until 1928. The stately nature of this home’s design and architectural features are immediately evident as one approaches the front entry. Lush lawns, raised garden beds and shrubberies flourish under a canopy of striking mature hardwoods and towering pine trees. The layout - that includes a main-level bedroom, bath and office / den and four bedrooms up - lends itself well to a home big enough for large and / or extended families, or perhaps beginning a new journey as a quintessential Nova Scotia B&B. Inside, the preservation of original trim, floors and doors make for a delightful space in which to live and entertain. Evidence of a well-maintained home is everywhere. Not surprisingly, the list of renovations and improvements on file is extensive and comprehensive.

I have sold a property at 147 Highway 8 in Milton on Nov 30, 2021. See details here

On the South Shore of Nova Scotia, there are a handful of significant, historic and instantly recognizable properties. This Empire-style 1864 home, perched on almost 2 acres of rolling lawns and gardens overlooking the picturesque Mersey River, is one such property - a favourite backdrop for wedding pictures throughout time. Currently operating as a B&B, the property’s sheer size, waterfront parcel, distinct architecture and generous layout provides a pretty rare template from which to create…or re-create one of the region’s signature homes as a single family estate. Entering the foyer draws attention to the curved staircase and skylight that illuminates both the first and second floor hallways. Original ceiling mouldings, hardwood floors, brick hearth and exposed beams reflect the 19th century era. The main house has four bedrooms, each with private en suite baths; one on the main floor. Balance of main floor includes a living room, reading library, dining room and access to separate owners’ unit. Upstairs finds three bedrooms with private en suites and a lounge area. The overall layout will permit a myriad of choices for conversion / renovation for a private home. The owners’ residence is currently closed-off from the main house, consisting of the kitchen, dining nook, sitting area with a wood fireplace, living room with patio doors leading out to a private deck and yard. Two bedrooms and a 3-pc. bath with skylight up. A return to a lovely private family home still affords a number of routes forward for new owners…lots of room for extended family while retaining part or all of the separate 2-bedroom guest area / in-law suite. Property also includes an adjacent 20,000 sq. ft. undeveloped lot and 12,000 square feet of water frontage, located just across the road; amazing for swimming or access for a canoe or kayak…or simply enjoying the water’s edge. Just 1.2 km (1 mile) from the Town of Liverpool. 90 minutes to Halifax and international airport.
