674 Kingsburg Road- Rose Bay

The real estate market here on the South Shore continues to be strong…especially with listings like this one! If you have family that have been wanting to move back home….and be close to the beach…you might want to send them this. 😉

The exterior is Maritime postcard perfect with natural weathered grey shingles & pristine white trim. But don’t let the charming Cape Cod style on the outside fool you – inside you’ll discover a fully modern home that is surprisingly spacious, open & airy, with 3 BRs & 2 full baths.
The cheery interior enjoys an abundance of natural light on both levels through its many windows & skylights, and there’s even a partial view of beautiful Rose Bay. Natural wood floors & high ceilings, a generous kitchen w/ cozy woodstove, and an open plan living-dining area anchor the first floor. Just off the main living area is a private office/den which could also serve as a main floor bedroom, with a full bath just across the hall.
The 3 bedrooms upstairs each have a skylight and the principal bedroom enjoys a private balcony – the perfect spot to take in amazing sunsets over Rose Bay. Completing the upper level is the spacious 4-pc main bath which features a custom walk-in shower & air jet tub. Outside, a paved driveway, a pretty garden shed & tidy lawns complement the expansive deck which provides the perfect venue for summertime entertaining & private relaxation alike.
Of course, none of the above matters if the location isn’t right. This wonderful home is just a scenic 15-min drive from amenity rich Lunenburg, 20 mins from the many services of Bridgewater, and a little more than an hour from metro Halifax. Best of all, you’re only 2 mins from stunning Hirtles Beach…just follow the sound of the waves!
