Property Description:

Offered at: $595,000 CDN

This rare property is located just 10 minutes from St. Andrews and boasts more than 600 ft. of prime southwest water frontage. The property overlooks an area historically know as "The Cross" as it's where the St. Croix and Waweig Rivers enter into Oak Bay. The views to the west are Hills Point and Todd's Point and the Maine coast and in the distance to the south, the Bayside Port.

A winding private lane leads from the road down through a wooded area, past the cedar rail fence to the 3600 sq. ft. house which is nestled on the water's edge.

The home itself was built by Master builders in 1965 purportedly by a direct descendant of Henry Ford's as reproduction shingle style cottage with a gambrel roof. Deep mouldings, oak floors, granite fireplaces all reflect the attention to detail and style in this beautiful home. Recently, the beauty and luster in this home have been fully restored; windows replaced with sympathetic energy efficient models, the oak floors have been sanded and beautifully refinished in a rich cinnamon hue, bathroom floors have been replaced with imported tile, counter tops and sinks updated with quartz and granite, and light fixtures updated. Even the original brass hardware on the panel doors have been polished to a lovely sheen.

The front doors enter into the gracious living/dining room (23'4" x 22'10") which features wide plank oak floors, exposed hand hewn beams, a brick fireplace with an airtight insert and a huge bay window with a 180 degree ocean view. This is truly the heart of the home, from here, you can move to the home office/den, up the stately oak stair case to the second floor, down the hall to a bedroom wing or into the adjacent kitchen.

The kitchen, which also opens into the dining area through a pass through, features its own brick fireplace/BBQ, a breakfast nook and eating island. The ceramic floor, quartz counter tops double granite sinks and cabinetry’s pewter hardware are all new updates. An outside door opens to a very private back deck and rock garden - great for family entertaining and barbequing.

The den/office also has a separate entrance into the front lawns and garden; it, like nearly every room in this magnificent home, enjoys great ocean views. The oak floors, the washed pine walls and deep cove mouldings at the ceiling make this the ideal private get-a-way for the busy executive or her husband.

A wide hall leads to two large bedrooms, both with the same rich oak floors, wood burning fireplaces with custom granite and wood surrounds, double closets and full ensuite baths both with ocean views. The main level also includes a large coat closet, entrance to the basement and mud room entrance with ceramic floor and 2 piece bath and storage closet and outside entrance onto the back deck and garden.

The stately stairway leads to the second floor landing and large central hall with another storage closet. All floors on this level are also oak except for the bathrooms which have been fitted with imported tile. The spacious master suite (22'10" x 20'2") includes his and hers double closets, a large dressing/sitting room or nursery, a large wood burning fireplace with custom hand-painted tiles and a large ensuite bath with a double champagne-bubble tub and separate shower. This beautiful room enjoys some of the best views in the house.

This level also includes another large bedroom, another full bath, a separate laundry will pull down stairs to a large attic and a large family/media room. The family room’s walls and ceiling are done in cedar and there are two large storage closets built under the eaves.

The property also includes a large garage/workshop (26' X 24') with usable loft and garden shed. The property itself has an ideal south and west exposure; perfect for enjoying our incredible sunsets. If you are interested in keeping horses, a 30" X 45' seven stall horse barn and additional acreage is also available.
