Set along Nova Scotia’s scenic Lighthouse Route, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home in Western Shore offers a rare blend of coastal charm, comfort, and convenience. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the South Shore, you’re just minutes from the vibrant seaside communities of Chester and Mahone Bay, with Halifax within an easy commute. Spend your days exploring white sand beaches, hiking scenic coastal trails, or enjoying time on the water—then return home to your own private retreat. The setting is truly special. A peaceful backyard framed by mature trees offers privacy and quiet, while the small river adds a calming natural backdrop. Expansive decks create seamless indoor-outdoor living—perfect for morning coffee in the fresh ocean air or long summer evenings under the stars. A fire pit area invites relaxed gatherings, and the beautifully maintained grounds provide space to unwind, garden, or simply take in the surroundings. Inside, the home is warm, inviting, and thoughtfully updated throughout. Over the past five years, significant upgrades include a new septic system (2020), recently redone roof, updated flooring, windows, and doors, professional interior and exterior painting, new heat pumps, a fully renovated primary ensuite, refreshed main floor bath, new garage framing, a completely rebuilt upper sundeck, and a refreshed lower deck. With two wood stoves, including one in the basement, the home offers added comfort and efficient heating during cooler months.
